The Investigator is despatched to a provincial town to find out the
truth behind a disturbing spate of suicides amongst employees of
The Firm. But from the moment he steps off the train, he finds
himself in a world that is alien, unrecognisable, and diabolically
complex. From the hostile weather and the fickle hospitality at
Hotel Hope to the town's bewildering inhabitants, everything seems
to be against him to the point where he wonders whether he is
trapped in a recurring nightmare, or has passed into the realm of
death itself. Cold, hungry and humiliated, and always one step
behind, he nevertheless remains determined to find the only man he
can hold to account - The Firm's legendary but elusive founder. The
Investigation is an enthralling fable in which our own world is
turned on its head, and where the only answers are more questions.
Philippe Claudel - author of Brodeck's Report and Monsieur Linh and
His Child - is one of Europe's most daring and versatile novelists.
