Highly recommended by Stephen King as one of the most intricate and thrilling novels he has ever read in the past ten years. Divorced expoliceman Jackson Brodie takes over an old case which constantly reminds him of the murder of his sister years ago when he was a young boy. This novel has been rearranged into a popular BBC TV play.

CASE HISTORIES

《尘封旧案》

《尘封旧案》被悬疑小说大师斯蒂芬·金赞誉为十年来读过的最曲折迷离的小说。年少时就承受了失去至亲的创伤的侦探怀着对死者亲属的悲悯情怀，接手了对三十年前旧案的调查。这部小说被改编成 BBC热播电视剧，由詹森·艾萨克饰演的杰克森·布罗迪的形象深入人心。

The book contains 13 short stories about relationships, marriage, family, affairs, and love, all of which reveal both the bright and dark sides of people's private life. It is absorbing and thoughtprovoking.

THIRTEEN KINDS OF MODALITIES

《十三种情态》

都市小说圣手邱华栋的新作，收录了十三篇与当代情感、婚姻、家庭、外遇、恋爱有关的短篇小说。小说的题目都只有两个字：《禅修》《心霾》《墨脱》《溺水》《降落》《入迷》《十渡》《大叔》《龙袍》《云柜》《蒸锅》《开盘》《闭关》等等。小说写的是日常生活中比较私人的隐秘生活，大部分和情感有关，不好为人道，但却影响着人自身的精神。这样的短篇小说好看而丰盈。

"With a lie you can go very far, but you can never go back." Karine Tuil, the winner of the WIZO Jewish Literature Prize in 2001, strongly represents the conflict between oriental and western civilizations, redefining American social situation since 9.11 from the perspectives of others in this book.

THE AGE OF REINVENTION

《谎言与命运》
