Summary:
Lucien (Lucy) Minor is the resident odd duck in the hamlet of Bury. Friendless and loveless, young and aimless, Lucy is a compulsive liar, a sickly weakling in a town famous for begetting brutish giants. Then Lucy accepts a job assisting the majordomo of the remote, foreboding Castle Von Aux. While tending to his new post, he soon discovers the place harbours many dark secrets, not least of which is the whereabouts of the castle's master, Baron Von Aux. Thus begins a tale of polite theft, bitter heartbreak, domestic mystery, and cold-blooded murder. Undermajordomo Minor is a triumphant ink-black comedy of manners by the Governor General's Award-winning author of "The Sisters Brothers". It is an adventure, and a mystery, and a searing portrayal of rural
Alpine
bad behaviour, but above all it is a love story. And Lucy must be careful, for love is a violent thing.
