This was too long, with far too much detail. I would not really recommend it.

Wow, this author is a great story-teller. This one is a intricate braid of an old murder mystery, a more recent crime, and the on-going aftermath of both.

In the end, I just didn't care. I feel for people who read this. I listened to it, and so at least had the benefit of a good narrator.

My least favorite Tana French so far but still enjoyable. Took too long to come together and felt fragmented. Regardless, I will continue reading her work!
