This book was sometimes hard to read because the main character struggles so much with internalized ableism after his brain injury, only he’s kind of a jerk so that’s not how he’s framing it. It’s totally realistic that someone like him would react with anger and frustration about the way he’s being perceived so it’s not bad writing, just kind of tiring to be around.
But it is interesting being inside the head of a guy who is kinda oblivious and privileged and a little douchey as he starts to realize it and wonder what he’s really capable of.
I liked this enough that I want to read more Tana French.

In terms of the mystery, I didn’t find it difficult at all the figure out the killer. The only real question was whether they had help or not and that did keep me guessing.
But the end??
