The Geometry of Falling

By: Lin, Li Anne

Literary crime fiction. Queer noir.

The murders are deliberate and the poetry is intentional: a serial killer working through a carefully chosen list, announcing each death before it happens with a phone call and a haiku. Detective Greenhouse recognizes a mind at work. What she doesn't yet know is how far back the motive reaches, or how little time she has.

Set in the atmospheric city of Stonebridge, The Geometry of Falling combines propulsive procedural plotting with a deeply interior portrait of a detective under siege, professionally, personally, and psychologically. Greenhouse's vivid, art-inspired hallucinations give the novel a literary register that sets it apart from conventional crime fiction, while the pacing and tension deliver everything readers expect from the genre.
