Descrizione libro paperback. 1st edition. New York. 1985. Washington Square Press. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Slightly Worn Wrappers . 0671546120. 219 pages. paperback. keywords: Literature England . FROM THE PUBLISHER - Under the city streets Prentis works as a senior clerk in a police department where are stored the archives of dead crimes' - undisclosed complicities and uninvestigated evils. His investigations are supervised by the enigmatic Mr Quinn who, for reasons of security, distrust - and spite? - never makes clear the purpose of this task. Events take a sinister turn when Quinn directs his inquiries towards Prentis's own affairs, and - Prentis feels - to those of his father, a wartime hero now confined to a mental home. Unsettled, Prentis gradually suspects that his father's breakdown is somehow connected with Quinn's menacing behavior and that the link is to be found in SHUTTLECOCK. For SHUTTLECOCK is the true story of his father's wartime exploits. Prentis has lived under it spell - and shadow - all his life. But his belief in his father's heroism is now undermined by the discovery of cracks in the story, small discrepancies that have odd parallels with a series of coded files that have mysteriously disappeared. He is sure that Quinn has taken them, but why? Does Quinn have something to hide? Or could it be that his father is not the man everyone thought he was and that Prentis is not the son he thought himself to be. Through the complex character of Prentis, Graham Swift builds up an intense psychological thriller - an unnerving study of power and inadequacy and the manipulative aspects of family and work life. inventory #22789 Very Good in Slightly Worn Wrappers.
