An isolated beach on the island of Guernsey in the British Channel is the world of the murder of Dude Brouard, one of Guernsey's wealthiest inhabitants and its main benefactor. Pressured as a child to flee the Nazis in Paris, Brouard was employed in his latest job when he passed on: a museum honoring those who resisted the German occupation of the island during World War II. It is from this time frame that his murderer may have come. But there are certainly others on Guernsey with reason to want Dude Brouard lifeless: his wives, his business associates, his current mistress, the underprivileged teens he mentored - any of whom may have harbored a top secret motive for murder. As relatives and buddies accumulate for the reading of the will, Deborah and Simon St. James find that relatively everyone on the history-haunted island has something to cover. And behind all the lies and alibis, a killer is lurking. To be able to bring this person to justice, the St. James must explore Guernsey's dark record - both past and present - and into the troubled psyche of someone who may have exacted retribution for the most unspeakable criminal offenses of all. In A LOCATION of Concealing,,best-selling novelist Elizabeth George grades new territory in the darker landscapes of human connections. She tells a gripping, suspenseful storyline of betrayal and devotion, warfare and remembrance, love and reduction...and the higher truths to which we must all ultimately answer.
