The Cutting Room by Welsh Louise (9781921145551)

Description - The Cutting Room by Welsh Louise

An auctioneer by profession, Rilke is an acknowledged expert in antiques but also considers himself something of an expert in many other fields.When he comes upon a hidden collection of violent, and highly disturbing, erotic photographs, Rilke feels compelled to unearth more about the deceased owner who coveted them. What follows is a compulsive journey of discovery, decadence and deviousness.With echoes of the great novels of Hammett and Chandler, and yet in a voice very much her own, Louise Welsh has produced a glittering debut with the widest appeal; and in her hero, Rilke, one of the most interesting characters in contemporary fiction.
