After a brutal triple murder in a remote community in the Scottish Highlands, a young man by the name of Roderick Macrae is arrested for the crime. A memoir written by the accused makes it clear that he is guilty, but the police and the courts must decide what drove him to murder the local village constable. And why did he kill his other two victims? Was he insane? Or was this the act of a man in possession of his senses? Only the persuasive powers of his advocate stand between the killer and the gallows at Inverness. In this compelling and original novel, using the words of the accused, personal testimony, transcripts from the trial and newspaper reports, Graeme Macrae Burnet tells a moving story about the provisional nature of the truth, even when the facts are plain. 650 0 $a Trials (Murder) $z Scotland $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Murder $x Psychological aspects $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Murderers $x Psychological aspects $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Thrillers (Fiction) $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Detective and mystery fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Suspense fiction. $2 gsafd 941 $a 16 952 $l GYPE631 $d 20240626020321.0 952 $l PLAX964 $d 20230718092816.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20230104013827.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20200529011214.0 952 $l PMAX975 $d 20191122025319.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20190814044647.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20181107034537.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006102146.0 952 $l MXPG943 $d 20180720045246.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20170418120657.0 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20170302014820.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20170301012025.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20170209011145.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20161110050051.0 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20161103011556.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20161103011112.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=FE2F803EA0C111E6ABA9DBC7DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
