A crime story set in Glasgow. The hunt is on to find a serial killer who has already claimed the lives of several women. He works at night, carefully selecting his victims from the dark and noisy confines of Glasgow’s nightclubs. “He liked to target the shyer ones sometimes; they were so susceptible to flattery. He leaned forward to get a better look. Out of the shadows, his face glowed.” Cathy Stewart, a divorced, 40-something mother-of-two, is also a private investigator. She’s been hired to find the killer but the bodies keep piling up. With her make-shift team of helpers, she’s determined to get to the truth before DCI Goodfellow, a former colleague whom Cathy both mistrusts and dislikes. What does he have to do with present-day events? And what is he hiding about the past?
Set in Yoknapatawpha County, Mississippi, As I Lay Dying tells the story of the dysfunctional Bundren family as they set out to fulfill Addie Bundren’s dying wish. Told by fifteen narrators, including Jewel, Cash, Darl and Dewey Dell, As I Lay Dying uses stream of consciousness to unveil each character’s motivations for carrying out Addie’s wish, along with a multitude of lies they have been hiding from each other. As I Lay Dying was Faulkner’s fifth novel and is included in the Modern Library’s list of 100 best English-language novels of the 20th century. The novel inspired a number of critically-acclaimed books including Graham Swift’s Last Orders and Suzan-Lori Parks’s Getting Mother’s Body: A Novel. The title, which inspired the name of the Grammy-nominated band As I Lay Dying, is derived from Homer’s The Odyssey.
