Random vacancy

In the fortieth year of life, a member of the local council of Barry Fairbrazer died in the fortieth year of life. This event plunged citizens in shock.
In the provincial English town with a crucible market square and an ancient monastery, I would seem, Idilly reigns, but is it really? What is hiding behind beautiful english facades? In fact, a quiet town has long been in a state of war. Rich conflict with the poor, teenagers - with their parents, wives - with husbands, teachers - with students ... Pegford is not the same as it seems at first glance. But the liberated chair in the local council only aggravates all these conflicts and threatens to lead to such a war that has not yet seen a small town. Who will be able to defeat the elections filled with passion, duplex and unexpected exposures?
This is a big novel about the small town and the first book of Joan Rowling for adults. Beautiful work created by an amazing storyteller
