Tana French is unbeatable in the literary thriller, and this is one of her best.
I will always read ANYTHING Tana French writes. I have no doubt she could make her grocery list tell a compelling story!
Another great Irish novel
the Arthur over describes moments and it makes for to much background noise from the story.
Excellent writing
Kept me guessing
