The Long Shadow

From the No. 1 bestseller and author of Richard & Judy pick The Savage Garden: an award-winning crime novel set in post-war New York for fans of Carlos Ruiz Zafon and Jed Rubenfeld

 In the small town of Amagansett, perched on Long Island's windswept coast, generations have followed the same calling as their forefathers, fishing the dangerous Atlantic waters. Little has changed in the three centuries since white settlers drove the Montaukett Indians from the land. But for Conrad Labarde, a second-generation Basque immigrant recently returned from the Second World War, and his fellow fisherman Rollo Kemp, this stability is shattered when a beautiful New York socialite turns up dead in their nets.

 On the face of it, her death was accidental, but deputy police chief Tom Hollis - an incomer from New York - is convinced the truth lies in the intricate histories and family secrets of Amagansett's inhabitants. Meanwhile the enigmatic Labarde is pursuing his own investigation.

 In unravelling the mystery, this haunting and evocative novel captures a community whose way of life is disappearing, its demise hastened by war in Europe and the incursions of wealthy city dwellers in search of a playground.

The Whaleboat House

Ce matin là, quand Conrad Labarde, pêcheur à Long Island, relève ses filets, il y découvre un cadavre. Il s'agit de Lillian Wallace, la fille d'un puissant homme d'affaires. Elle se serait noyée. 

Tom Hollis, l'adjoint du shérif, ne croit pas à la thèse de l'accident. Et Conrad, lui, est persuadé que Lillian a été assassinée. Uni à la jeune femme par des liens que nul ne soupçonne, il décide de mener sa propre enquête. 

À Amagansett, petit village où cohabitent marins et riches vacanciers new-yorkais, les langues ne se délient pas facilement. Mais Tom et Conrad sont déterminés à arracher la vérité au mutisme de l'océan, et au silence d'une famille qui ne tient pas du tout à dévoiler ses secrets.
