À propos de cet audio

In Broken Harbour, a ghost estate outside Dublin - half-built, half-inhabited, half-abandoned - two children and their father are dead. The mother is on her way to intensive care. Scorcher Kennedy is given the case because he is the Murder squad's star detective. At first he and his rookie partner, Richie, think this is a simple one: Pat Spain was a casualty of the recession, so he killed his children, tried to kill his wife Jenny, and finished off with himself. But there are too many inexplicable details and the evidence is pointing in two directions at once.

Scorcher's personal life is tugging for his attention. Seeing the case on the news has sent his sister Dina off the rails again, and she's resurrecting something that Scorcher thought he had tightly under control: what happened to their family, one summer at Broken Harbour, back when they were children. The neat compartments of his life are breaking down, and the sudden tangle of work and family is putting both at risk . . .

Ce que les critiques en disent

I've been enthusiastically telling everyone who will listen to read Tana French. She is, without a doubt, my favorite new mystery writer. Her novels are poignant, compelling, beautifully written and wonderfully atmospheric. Just start reading the first page. You'll see what I mean.
The half finished housing estate with jerry-built boxes is eerily reminiscent of a J. G. Ballard dystopian setting - establishing atmosphere is one of French's many strengths. Gradually, an emotionally jolting story of love, obsession and madness is played out to incredible effect. Since her first novel, In the Woods, was larded with awards in 2007, French has garnered a huge legion of fans and they will be thrilled with this, her fourth and possibly best novel.
The most breathtakingly brilliant and close-to-perfect thriller I've read for a long time.
Tana French is one of those rare novelists who combine a gift for dialogue and characterisation, with suspense, intrigue and fabulous plotting. And she's a beautiful writer, to boot. A real treat.
Edgar-winner French's eloquently slow-burning fourth Dublin murder squad novel shows her at the top of her game . . . French excels at drawing out complex character dynamics

Enjoyed the story, great narration. Kept me wondering and wanting to read more. Interesting characters, some character voices were a bit whiny though.

Loved the unique story line

I love Tana French's murder squad series, though I have listened to them all out of order (though they are mainly stand alone books, I would normally read in the order they are written). Great detail in the plot, as always, but it is the intense central character that is so engaging in all her books- whether you like them or not, they pull you in. Incredible dialogue between the characters, I can't imagine how hard that is to craft...
Narrator was excellent, though at times the female voices were a bit hard to buy or too whiny (and when intended to BE whiny, perhaps too much so), but by the end of the story, the tone of the female characters had changed, or he was better, or it was so engaging I didn't notice anymore. Loved it. This and The Trespasser probably my favourite of hers.

Solid 4.5

This was not my first Tana French novel. I had to hunt down this audible, like I called the
UK Audible became a 3 month member and still couldn’t get it because I could not get in
Canada or the US at the time. So when it became available I totally did a huge hurrah!!! I have listen to all Tana French’s books to date.
This book does not disappoint. You want a detective novel with realism and real people?
Well this is it. I am not going to tell you the story you have to judge for yourself. I love mystery/detective books and finding one that is truly superb is amazing.
The narrator is amazing, Hugh Lee. Thank for doing such a fantastic job Hugh. It made an incredible novel that much better.
Keep on writing Ms French!!!!

Superb, Amazing, Brilliant

The narrator is very good. The story started out as a great mystery, moved quickly and got your attention. Half way through the story started to really drag and much of the dialogue became plodding and repetitive. I found the ending unsatisfactory.

Strong start with a long drawn out finish

Overly theatrical performance nearly ruined this for me. The only reasonable voice was that of the main narrator; most other roles were oddly performed, especially those of female characters.

Thankfully the writing is so good - and the story so complex - that it’s easy to stay with this long novel. Brilliant writer.

Finely written story
