The thrilling new whodunit from Jol Dicker, master of the plot twist and the author of The Truth about the Harry Quebert Affair and The Enigma of Room 622. April 1999. The body of Alaska Sanders is found on the shore of a lake near the quiet town of Mount Pleasant, New Hampshire. The young womans death rocks the small community, but the murder is quickly solved. Within days, a suspect is identified and soon convicted.Case closed. Or so it seemed. . . .
Eleven years later, Marcus Goldman, celebrity author and amateur sleuth, picks up a thread that will unravel not only the open and shut case of Alaska Sanders, but the very fabric of his best friend,Sergeant Perry Gahalowoods life. Gahalowood, who led the original Alaska Sanders investigation, is hell-bent on finding the truth and setting the record straight. Teaming up with Marcus, he hopes to find redemption by solving the most intricate and trying case of his career.
Set both before and after the events of his phenomenal worldwide bestseller The Truth about the Harry Quebert Affair, Dickers latest delivers the last word in slow-burn police procedurals. Clue by clue, witness by witness, question by question, his characters painstakingly piece together an unguessable puzzle that could only have been set by this acclaimed master of the plot twist. And as they uncover who Alaska Sanders truly was, other ghosts from the past emerge . . .
Translated from the French by Robert Bononno

Pressezitat
"Joël Dicker's novels evoke the creepy pastoral dread of Twin Peaks, the clockwork plotting of Golden Age detective fiction, and the black comedy of the noir masters. If The Truth About the Harry Quebert Affair read like Gatsby by way of David Lynch, then The Alaska Sanders Affair recalls True Detective: there's something both classic and daring about it. One of the world's most original voices in crime fiction. " - A. J. Finn, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Woman in the Window and End of Story Kommentar zu "The Alaska Sanders Affair"
