It begins from the end, this detective novel of extraordinary quality for its plot and writing and whose title takes a phrase from Shakespeare's Julius Caesar: «Oh, if it were given to man to know the end of this impending day! But all it takes is for the day to pass and its end is known." And this quote would be enough to bring the author closer to writers like Steinbeck and Faulkner, a comparison we owe to Leonardo Sciascia who was the first to grasp the literary depth of Holiday Hall. New York, late 1940s, on a rainy evening the young Roy Kearney knocks on the door of the elegant apartment of the tycoon Bayard Paulton on 59th Street and while his wife makes him sit down while waiting for her husband, the man climbs onto the windowsill and throws himself into the void, crashing onto the pavement. Bayard Paulton does not know who the man is, he has never seen him, nor does he know the reasons why he came looking for him, but that death right from the window of his house disturbs him to the point of pushing him to look for a clue, something that can connect him to the stranger. He travels from Maine to Montana, following the traces of a controversial past backwards, until little by little the fog clears.
