    by Kate Atkinson (Author)

    AN AMAZON BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR - THE INSTANT #1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER (SUNDAY TIMES, UK) - The highly anticipated return of private eye Jackson Brodie in the newest installment of the bestselling series.

    "How delicious to have Jackson Brodie back, this time in a story that starts off in Agatha Christie's world but soon becomes a landscape that could only have been crafted from the pen of the incomparable Kate Atkinson."-Ian Rankin, author of the Inspector Rebus Novels

    Welcome to Rook Hall. The stage is set. The players are ready. By night's end, a murderer will be revealed.

    Ex-detective Jackson Brodie is staving off a bad case of mid-life malaise when he is called to a sleepy Yorkshire town, and the seemingly tedious matter of a stolen painting.

    But Jackson soon uncovers a string of unsolved art thefts that lead him down a dizzying spiral of disguise and deceit to Burton Makepeace, a formerly magnificent estate now partially converted into a hotel hosting Murder Mystery weekends.

    As paying guests, impecunious aristocrats and old friends collide, we are treated to Atkinson's most charming and fiendishly clever mystery yet, one that pays homage to the masters of the genre--from Agatha Christie and Dorothy Sayers to the modern era of Knives Out and Only Murders in the Building.

    Brilliantly inventive, with all of Atkinson's signature wit, wordplay, and narrative brio, Death at the Sign of the Rook may be Jackson Brodie's most outrageous and memorable case yet.
