Masterpiece’ WASHINGTON POST–‘The Main held me from the opening page’ CHICAGO TRIBUNE–‘The only writer of airport paperbacks to be compared to Zola, Ian Fleming, Poe and Chaucer’ NEW YORK TIMES–‘A literary jester, a magnificent tale-teller, whose range of interests was vast and whose scope for bafflement was formidable.’ INDEPENDENT–‘Trevanian’s sharply tuned sense of character and milieu gives the book a vivid life granted to only the finest of serious fiction.’ WASHINGTON POST The Main is Montreal’s teeming underworld, where the dark streets echo with cries in a dozen languages, with the quick footsteps of thieves and the whispers of prostitutes. It is a world where violence and brutality are a way of life. To the people of the Main, police lieutenant Claude La Pointe is judge, jury, father confessor and avenging angel. When a cold-blooded murderer invades La Pointe’s territory, he is forced to examine his long-held beliefs and secrets and to confront his own loneliness and mortality. With a cast of unforgettable supporting characters and an unusual and remarkable hero, The Main is another gripping tale of death and danger, of action and mystery, by the incomparable Trevanian.
