When down-at-the-heels Glasgow conjurer William Wilson lands a string of cabaret gigs in Berlin, he’s hoping his luck is on the turn. In Berlin’s nightshift underground, Wilson can abandon himself—and more importantly, his past. There were certain spectators from his last show he’d rather forget. Like the one who is now a corpse.
The Bullet Trick marks Louise Welsh’s return to the illicit terrain of urban life after-hours. A s she moves her unforgettable characters from London’s infamous Soho district and the gritty streets of Glasgow to the faded burlesque clubs of Berlin, her dazzling prose, noir mystery and extraordinary literary prowess confirm Welsh as an unforgettable talent.
LOUISE WELSH’s internationally bestselling debut novel, The Cutting Room, won the British Crime Writers’ Association Creasey Dagger for the best first crime novel, among many other prizes. Her second novel, Tamburlaine Must Die, also received critical acclaim for its daring treatment of the last days of Christopher Marlowe. Louise Welsh lives in Glasgow.

Description du livre Hardcover. Etat : New. Etat de la jaquette : New. First American Edition. Full number line 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1. . 384 pages. Crime Writers Association award winner Louise Welsh follows up her hit artworld noir The Cutting Room with a slick literary suspense thriller set among the decadent domains of contemporary Berlin, Glasgow, and London. Meet William Wilson, a foundering so-called mentalist, conjurer, and above all despite frequently being the opening act for strippers a master performer. When his agent books him for a string of cabaret gigs in Berlin, he's hoping his luck's on the turn. Among the showgirls and grifters of Berlin's scandalous underground, Wilson can forget his lonely heart, his muddled head, and, more important, his past. But secrets have a habit of catching up with William and as he gets in over his head with a certain brand of lucrative after-hours work, the line between what's an act and what's real starts to blur. Bringing the seedy glamour of the burlesque scene magnificently to life, Louise Welsh's deft contemporary tale is her richest and most macabre yet. A thundering thriller of Glasgow drinking dens, Soho clubs, and dark Berlin backstreets, The Bullet Trick is also an adults-only suspense, guaranteed to keep you guessing until its final explosive flourish.
