À propos de cet audio

A New York Times bestseller

From Graham Norton—the BAFTA Award–winning and hugely popular BBC America television host—comes a charming debut novel set in an idyllic Irish village where a bumbling investigator has to sort through decades of gossip and secrets to solve a mysterious crime. “With its tale of provincial life, gimlet-eyed spinsters, and thwarted love…it feels almost like a Miss Marple mystery written by Colm Tóibín” (The New York Times).

The remote Irish village of Duneen has known little drama, and yet its inhabitants are troubled: Sergeant P.J. Collins hasn’t always been this overweight; Brid Riordan, a mother of two, hasn’t always been an alcoholic; and elegant Evelyn Ross hasn’t always felt that her life was a total waste.

So when human remains—suspected to be those of Tommy Burke, a former lover of both Brid and Evelyn—are discovered on an old farm, the village’s dark past begins to unravel. As a frustrated P.J. struggles to solve a genuine case for the first time in his professional life, he unearths a community’s worth of anger and resentments, secrets and regrets.

Darkly comic, at times profoundly sad, and “especially inviting because of its tongue-in-cheek wit” (Kirkus Reviews), Holding is a masterful debut. Graham Norton employs his acerbic humor to breathe life into a host of lovable characters, and explore—with searing honesty—the complexities and contradictions that make us human.

Not really sure what I was expecting with this novel but it was quite good. The storyline kept you guessing, the characters were interesting and I enjoy listening to Graham’s storytelling. A good listen! Highly recommend it

Pleasantly surprised!

I enjoyed everything about this story. A great blend of comedy and drama. Having Graham Norton read it himself was the cherry on the top.

Loved it!!

I enjoy Mr Norton as a TV host so I really wasn't sure what to expect from his novel. He is obviously the perfect choice of narrators, and brought his characters to life.

Fun and unpredictable.

Just another enjoyable read (listen). I’m hoping this becomes a series I’d enjoy getting to know PJ a little more.

So reliably good

Not sure if it's designed as a mystery or a work of fiction -as a mystery it's easy to figure out. As a fiction it's really character driven and the development of the town is all encompassing. good weekend read overall.

wonderfully character driven

Love Graham Norton’s writing style. His descriptive narrative immerses you in his story and you feel you can pop in for tea with the characters and visit the village at any time! What a talent!

Loved it!

I wasn’t sure what to expect from Graham Norton, but I hoped this would be a novel with his characteristic wit and charm. I was not disappointed.
I’m a bit weary of novels narrated by their authors - words they’ve written / read so many times seem to lose their life in their mouths. GN, however, delivered his novel with imagination and commitment.
I’ve read / listened to a few novels set in Ireland and always love the characters and mini-scandals that seem to go hand in hand. Here again did GN deliver.
This is exactly the novel you would expect someone like Graham Norton to write. It made me love him even more.

Clever and enjoyable!
