Description
Thomas H. Cook is a writer of crime fiction for whose characters the past will never truly pass. His novels are set in diverse periods and places, and are often narrated by storytellers speaking many years later, who have found that the cataclysmic events they describe reverberate long after the fact. Cook's character-driven novels explore the genre's boundaries, taking a literary slant to police procedurals and amateur detective stories and delving deeply into the moral and psychological challenges his characters face. Cook's writing style is coolly elegant and elegiac, relating deceptively simple plots with deep resonance. Start with: The Chatham School Affair
