The Unquiet Dead (2015)

Rachel Getty shares the investigation with Esa Khattak in this Toronto police novel. A death near the cliffs opens questions about a man’s identity and the aftermath of the Bosnian war. Getty’s observations and her developing working relationship with Khattak matter, while testimony carries a weight beyond solving a puzzle. Begin with this first case, and expect genocide, grief and the difficulties of hearing survivors to be central rather than incidental background.
