| Summary: | 'One of the most compulsive psychological mysteries since Donna Tartt's The Secret History' The Times retired detective Cal Hooper moves to a remote village in rural Ireland. His plans are to fix up the dilapidated cottage he's bought, to walk the mountains, to put his old police instincts to bed forever. Then a local boy appeals to him for help. His brother is missing, and no one in the village, least of all the police, seems to care. And once again, Cal feels that restless itch. Something is wrong in this community, and he must find out what, even if it brings trouble to his door. Our greatest living mystery writer weaves a masterful tale of breath-taking beauty and suspense, asking what we sacrifice in our search for truth and justice, and what we risk if we don't. -- What everyon eis saying about Tana French 'An engrossing, unpredictable, beautifully written mystery' Sophie Hannah 'To say Tana French is one of the great thriller writers is really too limiting. Rather she's simply this: a truly great writer' Gillian Flynn 'French offers a masterclass in unreliability' Sunday Times 'I'm a big fan of Tana French' Ian Rankin 'The Wych Elm should cement French's place in the first rank of great literary novelists ' Observer 'This book confirms Tana French as [crime fiction's] biggest contemporary star' Guardian 'Terrific - terrifying, amazing, and the prose is incandescent' Stephen King 'Another one of her rich psychological thrillers that will work its way under your skin' Lucy Mangan, stylist 'This mystery about family, memory and the cracks in both will haunt you for a long, long time' Erin Kelly |
