About this listen

Antoinette Conway, the tough, abrasive detective from The Secret Place, is still on the Murder Squad, but only just. She's partnered up with Stephen Moran now, and that's going well - but the rest of her working life isn't. Antoinette doesn't play well with others, and there's a vicious running campaign in the squad to get rid of her.

She and Stephen pull a case that at first looks like a slam dunk lovers' tiff, but gradually they realise there's more going on: someone on their own squad is trying to push them towards the obvious solution, away from nagging questions.

They have to work out whether this is just an escalation in the drive to get rid of her - or whether there's something deeper and darker going on.

A real pearler

I have been entranced by Tana French, and this is the best. Her characters (especially the two protagonist detective partners) are sublime, the dialogue as if French was on the Squad, and the lilting gorgeous performance by Hilda Fay made this the book of the year for me, addicted to the dramatic arc as the trajectory flows to the end. Just lovely.

flawless

French's best book since In the Woods. Conway and Moran are my favourite detectives since Kate Atkinson's Jackson Brodie. French's characters are so complex and fleshed out and human. The reader never needs to like them in order to love them. Flawless!

Loved it

Another fabulous book by Tana French. The unfolding story kept me completely absorbed. The depth and realism of her characters are second to none. I can’t wait for her next book!

Greateat novel and wonderful narration. Took me back to living in Dublin, loved all the different Irish accents as well as the places and pubs. Felt very real.

A detectives detective story

My first Tana French novel; won't be the last. The killer is only revealed in the last 10 minutes in this tight, thoughtful, intricate story. The message for me is, avoid being questioned by detectives in the murder squad.

Tana French is Queen

I love this series! Lyricism, subtle engagement with bigger social/political/cultural issues with a stellar cast of characters and an intriguing mystery. Writing is amazing and the performance does it justice!
