West Heart Kill
Autor Dann McDormanen Limba Engleză Paperback – 13 noi 2023
A unique and irresistible murder mystery set at a remote hunting lodge where everyone is a suspect, including the erratic detective on the scene—a remarkable debut that gleefully upends the rules of the genre.
"A thoroughly original suspense novel that hops across elements of the genre—a diabolical locked-room mystery interspersed with a fascinating primer on the form—while always being tremendous fun to read."—Chris Pavone, best-selling author of Two Nights in Lisbon
An isolated hunt club. A raging storm. Three corpses, discovered within four days. A cast of monied, scheming, unfaithful characters.
When private detective Adam McAnnis joins an old college friend for the Bicentennial weekend at the exclusive West Heart club in upstate New York, he finds himself among a set of not-entirely-friendly strangers. Then the body of one of the members is found at the lake’s edge; hours later, a major storm hits. By the time power is restored on Sunday, two more people will be dead . . .

Recenzii
Doesn't so much break the fourth wall as crash through it in a bulldozer ... very well executed indeed
One of the most unique and meta murder mysteries you will read all year
A crime novel that unpicks traditional storytelling . engrossing, surprising, clever, genre-bending
Fun, clever, and innovative. A remarkable novel by a major talent, who has created a crime novel that feels entirely unique
Phenomenal . totally unique . a treat for every murder mystery fan
West Heart Kill is a brilliantly crafted crime novel that wears its influences on its sleeve, and in doing so manages at once to wrong-foot the reader and the genre entirely. A terrific, thrilling and novel debut
A highly original and hugely entertaining novel, West Heart Kill breaks new ground, in a classic way
A thoroughly original suspense novel that hops across elements of the genre-a diabolical locked-room mystery interspersed with a fascinating primer on the form-while always being tremendous fun to read
A brain-teaser and a crowd-pleaser. I loved it
Both honouring the classic crime genre and turning it on its head, this is a talented, unique read that we predict will perform superbly
West Heart Kill may well prove to be one of the most discussed mysteries of the year . a writer to watch out for
In this re-imagining of the classic detective story McDorman tweaks aside the curtain to show us the nuts and bolts, revealing just how easily we get hooked and why. And in contradiction to of accepted wisdom that detective stories must sacrifice stylish prose in service of plot, McDorman's prose is a delight to read
West Heart Kill is perfect for those who love classic murder mysteries, and those who are more interested in experimental and ambitious crime writing. Bold and original, McDorman's debut is a wondrous achievement that succeeds in making the reader a cast member
