The third policeman
Read
Review
A very fun book but it was a bit of a slog throughout the middle section, progressively better towards the end and very satisfying ending. Would be a good one to read back again.
Summary
Within the boudaries of this novel the reader will find: a murder thriller; a comic satire about an archetypal village police force; a surrealistic vision of eternity; the story of a tender, brief unrequited love affair between a man and his bicycle; and a chilling fable of unending guilt.
