A Case of Matricidedemonstrates literary talent of the highest order few writers can rival Burnet.The SpectatorChief Inspector Gorski returns In the unremarkable French town of SaintLouis, a mysterious stranger stalks the streets an elderly woman believes her son is planning to do away with her a prominent manufacturer drops dead. Between visits to the towns hostelries, Chief Inspector Georges Gorski ponders the connections, if any, between these events, while all the time grappling with his own domestic and existential demons.Graeme Macrae Burnet once again pierces the respectable bourgeois faade of smalltown life in this, the concluding part of his trilogy of Gorski novels. He injects a wry humour into the tiniest of details and delves into the darkest recesses of his characters minds, but above all provides an entertaining, profound and moving read.
