His Bloody Project: Documents Relating to the Case of Roderick Macrae

Victorian murder mystery meets psychological courtroom drama.

If you're drawn to the murky depths of human psychology and fancy a trip back to the 19th century Scottish Highlands, "His Bloody Project" might just satisfy that craving. Graeme Macrae Burnet weaves an intricate tale that blurs the lines between fact and fiction, challenging the reader to consider the reliability of narrative and the complexities of the human mind. It's as much a novel for lovers of historical detail as it is for those who relish the chill of a good psychological thriller.

Description

The year is 1869. A brutal triple murder in a remote community in the Scottish Highlands leads to the arrest of a young man by the name of Roderick Macrae. A memoir written by the accused makes it clear that he is guilty, but it falls to the country's finest legal and psychiatric minds to uncover what drove him to commit such merciless acts of violence. Was he mad? Only the persuasive powers of his advocate stand between Macrae and the gallows. Graeme Macrae Burnet tells an irresistible and original story about the provisional nature of truth, even when the facts seem clear. His Bloody Project is a mesmerising literary thriller set in an unforgiving landscape where the exercise of power is arbitrary.
