Toby is a happy-go-lucky charmer who's dodged a scrape at work and is celebrating with friends when the night takes a turn that will change his life - he surprises two burglars who beat him and leave him for dead.

Then a skull is found in the trunk of an elm tree in the garden - and as detectives close in, Toby is forced to face the possibility that his past may not be what he has always believed.

An intricately woven tale of WWII

Written by: Natasha Lester
Publisher's Summary
Best Book of 2020 by New York Times, NPR, and New York Post
"This hushed suspense tale about thwarted dreams of escape may be her best one yet.... Its own kind of masterpiece." (Maureen Corrigan, The Washington Post)
"A new Tana French is always cause for celebration.... Read it once for the plot; read it again for the beauty and subtlety of French's writing." (Sarah Lyall, The New York Times)
Cal Hooper thought a fixer-upper in a bucolic Irish village would be the perfect escape. After 25 years in the Chicago police force and a bruising divorce, he just wants to build a new life in a pretty spot with a good pub where nothing much happens. But when a local kid whose brother has gone missing arm-twists him into investigating, Cal uncovers layers of darkness beneath his picturesque retreat, and starts to realize that even small towns shelter dangerous secrets.
"One of the greatest crime novelists writing today" (Vox) weaves a masterful, atmospheric tale of suspense, asking how to tell right from wrong in a world where neither is simple, and what we stake on that decision.
What the critics say
“A slow-burn stunner that will keep readers turning the pages late into the night. Recommend to the author’s legions of fans, as well as those who enjoy crime fiction set in small towns like Julia Keller’s or Jane Harper’s novels.” (Library Journal, starred review)
“In another stand-alone, French again displays impressive versatility...French skillfully builds suspense...a fine thriller, but also a moving story of an unlikely friendship that grows from refinishing a ramshackle desk to rebuilding two nearly broken lives.” (Booklist)
“Deliver[s] plenty of twists, shocking revelations, and truly chilling moments.” (Kirkus)

A masterpiece narrated by a masterpiece!
This book, as with all of Tana French’s work, is sublime.
The narrator was absolutely perfect for this story.
When the story ended, I was truly sad to have to leave these characters I had grown to love, hate and root for like family!
LOVE. LOVE. LOVE.

I was expecting a Dublin Murder Squad story ...
I really found this to be disappointing .I love Taa French and had preordered this title... but it was immediately disappointing (the narrator is American) and the main character is an X chicago cop (which it appears is meant to be esteemed and revered as better than the Garfers?) It felt utterly like a bid to expand readership to an American audience. I kept waiting for the familiarity of the Dublin Murder squad but alas nothing.

I guess Tana French wanted to write something completely different and effortlessly succeeded. This is not like her usual books. The characters are relatable, the description of the landscape is outstanding. All in all, this is a brilliant book—what a remarkable writer.

Different but certainly great!!!
This was different from Tana French’s previous novels in that the officer is retired. But the story built and I loved Roger Clark’s voice and singing!!! I hope she writes another novel with these characters. You really feel the atmosphere of the setting in Ireland and the characters are interesting. Eager to listen/read the next novel.

Gentle story beautifully narrated.
Not your typical mystery. A story about loyalty and character and how promises can bring the people who make them to places they don't expect to go. Narrator is unbelievably good, switching between American and Irish accents, both male and female. Highly recommended.
