Recently retired Inspector of Police Auguste Jovert receives a letter from a woman who claims to be his daughter. Two days later, a stranger comes knocking on his door.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Set in Paris and Japan, ＜em＞The Snow Kimono＜/em＞ tells the stories of Inspector Jovert, former Professor of Law Tadashi Omura, and his one-time friend the writer Katsuo Ikeda. All three men have lied to themselves, and to each other. And these lies are about to catch up with them.＜/p＞ ＜p＞A quarter of a century after the award-winning bestseller ＜em＞Out of the Line of Fire＜/em＞, Mark Henshaw returns with an intricate psychological thriller that is also an unforgettable meditation on love and loss, on memory and its deceptions, and the ties that bind us to others.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜strong＞Mark Henshaw＜/strong＞ has lived in France, Germany, Yugoslavia and the USA. He currently lives in Canberra. His first novel, ＜em＞Out of the Line of Fire＜/em＞ (1988), won the FAW Barbara Ramsden Award and the NBC New Writers Award. It was one of the biggest selling Australian literary novels of the decade and has been re-released as a Text Classic. ＜em＞The Snow Kimono＜/em＞ won the 2014 NSW Premier’s Award for Fiction and Mark Henshaw was the 2015 winner of the Copyright Agency’s Author Fellowship.＜/p＞ ＜p＞‘With agile intelligence, with boldness in what he has imagined and tight control over how it is developed, Henshaw has announced triumphantly that he is no longer a ghost on the Australian literary scene, but one of its most substantial talents.’ ＜em＞Australian＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞‘Gripping…Like a Japanese puzzle, prized for their infinite solutions and depth of revelation, each chapter builds on the one before, unfolding through levels of story to unpack deeper and deeper truths…Henshaw’s ability to combine such cultural and aesthetic diversity in his fiction is not only an example of what a period of dedicated study can do, but a marker of his ability as a writer.’ ＜em＞Guardian＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞‘Henshaw’s prose [is] luminous and crisp, like the snowy countryside of Japan or the barren lanes of Algiers...When I finished ＜em＞The Snow Kimono＜/em＞, I raised my head, vaguely surprised that I was at home, in familiar surrounds, and it was still daylight outside. I turned straight back to page one and began again.’ ＜em＞Saturday Paper＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞‘Henshaw’s effects are consistently magical…[He] has perfected a particular technique for the scenes set in Japan, one we might call leisurely lyricism.’ ＜em＞Sydney Morning Herald＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞‘A confident, complex, ludic and engrossing performance that will make readers glad Henshaw is back…With agile intelligence, with boldness in what he has imagined and tight control over how it is developed, Henshaw has announced triumphantly that he is no longer a ghost on the Australian literary scene, but one of its most substantial talents.’ ＜em＞Weekend Australian＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞‘The writing is beautiful: pellucid and wonderfully visual, painting memorable landscape cameos. The reader is compliant, willingly engaged with a story that starts in medias res and branches in unexpected and seemingly unconnected yet complementary directions, ending with a twist that is hard to get one’s head around.’ ＜em＞Adelaide Advertiser＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞‘An exquisitely written puzzle.’ Jennifer Byrne, ＜em＞Australian Women’s Weekly＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞‘A triumph.’ Salty Popcorn＜/p＞ ＜p＞‘Henshaw doesn’t offer the easy satisfactions of much puzzle-literature, but the many turns and shifts make for a constantly engaging read...An interesting, engaging work…Fascinating.’ ＜em＞Complete Review＜/em＞＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞In The Red Kimono, Zac is on the trail of Guy Frobisher, an art collector who, whether unlucky or careless, has a habit of losing his paintings ... and his lovers.

The discovery of both, in Guy Frobisher's family mausoleum, provides the darkest moment for Zac so far.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Also in this story, Zac finishes with George, and Matt is fishing for his chance until it's clear that someone else is nibbling Matt's bait.

An important case is coming Zac's way, which will involve a trip to Paris.
