You Who Know (eBook, ePUB)

"An acknowledged master... writes with heart and unfailing intelligence" in this meditative Inspector Castang mystery about sexual obsession and love ( Publishers Weekly). When Inspector Henri Castang is asked to investigate the death of a colleague and friend, an Irishman whose erratic behavior raises questions about his involvement in the I.R.A., Castang travels through Europe in search of answers. What the detective discovers is a very different picture of the friend he once knew, a sordid tale of sexual obsession that plunges Castang into the world of organized crime, on the trail of a mystery that calls into question the very nature of the human heart. Praise for Nicolas Freeling: "In depth of characterization, command of language and breadth of thought, Mr. Freeling has few peers when it comes to the international policier." - The New York Times "Nicolas Freeling... liberated the detective story from page-turning puzzler into a critique of society and an investigation of character." - The Daily Telegraph "Freeling rewards with his oblique, subtly comic style." - Publishers Weekly "Freeling writes like no one.... He is one of the most literate and idiosyncratic of crime writers." - Los Angeles Times
