Praise for The Disappearance of Adele Bedeau A stylish, atmospheric mystery with a startling twist. . satisfies like Simenon and surprises like Ruth Rendell. I can't give it any higher praise.--NPR A brilliant character study of a social outcast and a creepy, twisting, deviously well-constructed story of intrigue and murder that reads like a lost classic.--Thomas Mullen, author of Darktown The Disappearance of Adele Bedeau is a quietly relentless exploration of the complexities of guilt and the awkwardness and banality of evil. An intensely inventive novel, as subtle as it is shocking.--Ian McGuire, author of The North Water Graeme Macrae Burnet avoids the black and the white and paints a picture of a troubled, paranoid outsider drifting through the gray areas of life.
