Produktbeschreibung

Grasshopper is an enthralling, chilling novel by the bestselling queen of crime Barbara Vine ´They have sent me here because of what happened on the pylon´ When Clodagh Brown writes these words at the age of nineteen, she believes that she is leaving behind the traumatic events of her youth. But Clodagh soon learns that you can never entirely escape your past. In the aftermath of the incident on the pylon - a gargantuan electrified grasshopper - Clodagh goes off to university, moves into a basement flat arranged by her unsympathetic family, and finds freedom trekking across London´s rooftops with a gang of neighborhood misfits. As she begins a thrilling relationship with a fellow climber, however, both Clodagh and the reader are haunted by the memory of the pylon and of the terrible thing that happened there - and by the eerie sense that another tragedy is just a footfall away. Grasshopper is a modern crime masterpiece that will have you gripped from the first page to the last. If you enjoy the novels of P.D. James, Ian Rankin and Scott Turow, you will love this book. ´The Rendell/ Vine partnership has for years been producing consistently better work than most Booker winners put together´ Ian Rankin ´A superb and original writer´ Amanda Craig, Express Barbara Vine is the pen-name of Ruth Rendell.
