For his own purposes, octogenarian Monk (named after Thelonious) is carrying out a strict surveillance of various suspicious characters in his Dublin environs, including Schroeder, just fired from Trinity College. Then, on a state visit, the president of the United States is assassinated.
VERDICT Audacious, blackly funny, and high-end gritty, this work is nothing like a standard thriller but will keep sophisticated readers turning pages.
