The story takes place in the 1950s, not long after the close of World War II. A German man with a connection to Rosa, has become prominent in Ireland because of his wealth. Now he becomes a suspect in her murder, especially after his son happens to be in Israel at the same time as another Jewish woman, also with a connection to Rosa, is killed under mysterious circumstances. In between bouts of Quirke's drunkenness and their disagreements with each other, he and Strafford find resolution to the case. Or do they? The surprising final chapter suggests they aren't even close.
