Produktbeschreibung
"Delightfully odd . . . Racculia, clearly a fan of Agatha Christie, stuffs the Bellweather with a fine cast of mistfits, dreamers and foes." - Entertainment Weekly , Grade: A

Fifteen years ago, a murder-suicide in room 712 rocked the grand old Bellweather Hotel and the young bridesmaid who witnessed it, Minnie Graves. Now hundreds of high school musicians have gathered in the hotel's cavernous halls for the annual Statewide festival; Minnie has returned to face her demons; and a colossal snowstorm is threatening to trap them all in the hotel.

When a young prodigy goes missing from infamous room 712, the search for her entwines an eccentric cast of conductors and caretakers, failures and stars, teenagers on the verge and adults trapped in memories.A genre-bending page-turner from a writer to watch.

"[A] deliciously dark confection of a novel, and one of the most thoroughly enjoyable books I've read in years." -Celeste Ng, #1 New York Times-bestselling author of Little Fires Everywhere

"Funny and exuberant, twisty and captivating. Racculia tells the truth here, about art and life and the many trajectories that talent can take. . . .For its darkness and its glee, I loved this novel." -Robin Sloan, New York Times-bestselling author of Mr. Penumbra's twenty-four-Hour Bookstore

Rezensionen
"As much as this is a tale of youth and ambition - and, in the case of the students' messy adult mentors, regret and rage - it is at its core a humdinger of a mystery...the pleasures of this great yarn are not just its full heart but its clever head." - Entertainment Weekly , Grade A "This rich brew of a novel from Racculia ( This Must Be the Place) mixes together murder, music, and eccentric humor. Racculia sets the stage for a novel of dueling wills, marked by textured characterization and an ebullient storytelling style." - Publishers Weekly, starred review "An experience worth rhapsodizing about . . . Racculia's droll wit and keen understanding of human nature propel a story that's rich in distinctive characters and wholly engaging. A gem." - Kirkus , starred review

" Bellweather Rhapsody is funny and exuberant, twisty and captivating. Racculia tells the truth here, about art and life and the many trajectories that talent can take. She's also written the most resonantdescriptions of music-how it really works in the head and the heart-that I've ever read. For its darkness and its glee, I loved this novel." - Robin Sloan, author of Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore
"Witty and smartly moving, Kate Racculia's Bellweather Rhapsody offers a heart-thumping mystery of music and murder, wherein the past repeats itself, and in doing so becomes malleable again: just as an orchestral score can be rearranged to new effect, so an unsolved crime sometimes returns to shock and surprise anew-and in both cases the outcomes are as unpredictable as they are suspenseful." -Matt Bell, author of In the House upon the Dirt between the Lake and the Woods
