SYNOPSIS
Investigating other people’s tragedies and cock-ups and misfortunes was all he knew. He was used to being a voyeur, the outsider looking in, and nothing, but nothing, that anyone did surprised him any more. Yet despite everything he’d seen and done, inside Jackson there remained a belief – a small, battered and bruised belief – that his job was to help people be good rather than punish them for being bad.
Cambridge is sweltering, during an unusually hot summer. To Jackson Brodie, former police inspector turned private investigator, the world consists of one accounting sheet – Lost on the left, Found on the right – and the two never seem to balance.
Jackson has never felt at home in Cambridge, and has a failed marriage to prove it. Surrounded by death, intrigue and misfortune, his own life haunted by a family tragedy, he attempts to unravel three disparate case histories and begins to realise that in spite of apparent diversity, everything is connected…
REVIEWS
‘Her best book yet, an astonishingly complex and moving literary detective story that made me sob but also snort with laughter. It's the sort of novel you have to start rereading the minute you've finished it’ Guardian
'Funny, furious fourth novel rumbustiously drives a path through the genre of detective fiction, demolishing its careful, forensic summation of human behaviour and replacing them with bloody, believable, vigorous tales...' Rachel CuskDETeBook com proteção para wookreaderILS

REVIEWS
Thriller literário
Ana C. Oliveira
Um dos melhores livros que li este ano, sem dúvida alguma! A primeira coisa que vou fazer é comprar todos os livros de Kate Atkinson, pois tenho a certeza que se vai tornar uma das minhas escritoras de eleição. Em Case Histories é-nos apresentado Jackson Brodie, um investigador privado que se vê envolvido em vários casos arquivados, tentado desvendá-los ao mesmo tempo em que lida com os seus próprios problemas.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Kate Atkinson
Kate Atkinson é uma das mais proeminentes romancistas da atualidade. Publicada em dezenas de países e idiomas, granjeou o reconhecimento dos leitores e da crítica e por isso tem hoje o raro dom de simultaneamente conquistar importantes prémios literários (como o Costa Book Award, por três vezes) e estar sempre nas listas de bestsellers – foi também agraciada pela rainha Isabel II com o título de Membro da Ordem do Império Britânico por serviços prestados à literatura. Um Vasto Céu Azul, o romance que a Bertrand Editora dá agora a ler aos leitores portugueses – após Transcrição (2020) –, marca a estreia em Portugal de um dos seus personagens mais célebres, e eternos, o detetive privado Jackson Brodie (a saga foi adaptada para série de televisão pela BBC).
