Graham Norton is a delightful person - that much has surely been established. But I had no idea he was such a charming storyteller, too! Although the main plot twist was heavily foreshadowed and therefore became apparent much too early for my taste, I thoroughly enjoyed reading this debut novel and can't wait to read more from Graham.

A really great read. I enjoyed the gentle humour and tales of rural Ireland. The guarda was likeable and his inner monologue hilarious. I found the ending a little unbelievable and far fetched but it didn't spoil my enjoyment overall

First 2/3 was pretty boring. Last 1/3 was predictable, but enjoyable.
