Jonathan is a private investigator in a decaying eastern European
city, consumed by his work and his failing marriage. Approached one
day by an elderly couple, he is presented with a faded photograph
of their daughter, missing for nearly two decades. Troubled by the
image of the little girl, who was the same age when she vanished as
his own daughter is now - he is compelled to find her. But one
night, soon after taking on the case, as he walks across the bridge
spanning the river that divides the city, he encounters a young
woman crouched at the foot of a stone angel - a woman who suddenly
leaps into the icy water below. Without thinking, Jonathan plunges
after her, and is soon drawn into her ghostly world of confusion,
coincidence and intrigue, and the city he thought he knew turns
strange and threatening. Haunting and deeply moving, The Drowned
Detective is an intoxicating, atmospheric exploration of
relationships, lies and betrayal - confirming Neil Jordon as a
master storyteller and a vital literary voice.
