About this title

Review:

"A twisted whodunit...hilarious" (Financial Times)

"Parks writes with a brutal, snapping wit" (Sunday Times)

"A triumph of the darkly-comic-thriller-and-something-more-besides genre" (Daily Telegraph)

"A sort of twisted whodunnit... The readability of the book comes from Parks’s wonderful and audacious juggling of farcical situations and the way in which Morris’s earnest attempts to build a more cultured and just world lead him further and further into slaughter. Hilarious." (Financial Times)

"Tarantino meets Peter Mayle" (Independent on Sunday)

Book Description:

A thrilling comedy, as dark as it is farcical - the horrifying and entertaining tale of an unrepentant bourgeois serial killer, Morris Duckworth, and his adventures in Veronese high society
