Shortlisted Ned Kelly Award / Best Crime 2021
The unputdownable new novel from the best-selling author of The Ruin and The Scholar.
Some lines should never be crossed.
Police corruption, an investigation that ends in tragedy and the mystery of a little girl’s silence – three unconnected events that will prove to be linked by one small town.
While Detective Cormac Reilly faces enemies at work and trouble in his personal life, Garda Peter Fisher is relocated out of Galway with the threat of prosecution hanging over his head. But even that is not as terrible as having to work for his overbearing father, the local copper for the pretty seaside town of Roundstone.
For some, like Anna and her young daughter, Tilly, Roundstone is a refuge from trauma. But even this village on the edge of the sea isn’t far enough to escape from the shadows of evil men.
Narrator Aoife McMahon returns to bring us Book 3 of the Cormac Reilly series. McMahon's soft Irish accent is perfectly in tune with the Irish detective and his colleagues, who include Detective Peter Fisher, here taking center stage. Three dramatic subplots eventually come together in this suspenseful story of drugs, police corruption, and family relationships. Through well-written action scenes, listeners experience the strengths and flaws of the lead characters. McMahon skillfully voices the female characters, including a traumatized little girl. She also effectively differentiates the male characters. Listeners will be drawn into this timely story of the complex nature of police work and the authentic desire of good police officers to serve the public well.
