The Sunday Times bestseller. Graham Norton's dark and masterful debut set in a remote Irish village, is an intelligently crafted story of love, secrets and loss. **Pre-order Graham Norton's new novel Frankie now** 'A gentle comic crime story' GUARDIAN 'Poised and perceptive' SUNDAY TIMES 'A beautiful piece of writing' KATHY BURKE The remote Irish village of Duneen has known little drama; and yet its inhabitants are troubled. Sergeant PJ Collins hasn't always been this overweight; mother of two Brid Riordan hasn't always been an alcoholic; and elegant Evelyn Ross hasn't always felt that her life was a total waste. So when human remains are discovered on an old farm, suspected to be that of Tommy Burke - a former love of both Brid and Evelyn - the village's dark past begins to unravel. As the frustrated PJ struggles to solve a genuine case for the first time in his life, he unearths a community's worth of anger and resentments, secrets and regret. Darkly comic, touching and at times profoundly sad. Graham Norton employs his acerbic wit to breathe life into a host of lovable characters, and explore - with searing honesty - the complexities and contradictions that make us human.
