His Bloody Project

Graeme Macrae Burnet’s Booker-shortlisted novel is a documentary-style, metafictional exploration of a brutal triple murder in 1869 Scottish Highlands, told through the memoir of the accused, Roderick Macrae. Blending gripping storytelling with an insightful examination of truth and justice, the book delves into the complexities of motive, madness, and the often-uncertain nature of reality. Featuring authentic voices and the author’s own narration, it offers a compelling and thought-provoking reading experience.
