Erasing memory : a MacNeice mystery / Scott Thornley.

Thornley, Scott, (author.).

Summary:

A remarkable Canadian crime debut! MacNeice, a senior police detective in the southern Ontario industrial city of Dundurn, is returning from a pilgrimage to his wife's grave when he's called to a crime scene of singular and disturbing beauty. A young woman in evening dress lies gracefully posed on the floor of a pristine summer cottage so that the finger of one hand regularly interrupts the needle are of a phonograph playing the Schubert Piano. The only visible mark on her is the bruise under her chin - it is the mark that distinguishes dedicated violinists. The murder is both ingenious and horrific, and soon entangles MacNeice and his team in Eastern Europe's ancient grievances, which reach out to breach all the walls that have been thrown up to keep the past at bay.
