Description
SINKHOLE: THREE CRIMES by Rosanna McLaughlin
A novel in three parts, SINKHOLE: THREE CRIMES submerges readers in a grotesque and comical world on the edge of collapse — much like our own. Britain is immersed in a toxic swamp, and sinkholes are opening up in the ground with alarming frequency. Amid the mayhem, three crimes take place: Stonehenge has been stolen, a porn-addicted ghost writer faces the phantoms of her past, and a murder takes place among ex-pats in a Goan village.
Fiction.
