On one of the half-abandoned "luxury" developments that litter Ireland, Patrick Spain and his two young children have been murdered. His wife, Jenny, is in intensive care. At first, Scorcher thinks it's going to be an easy solve, but too many small things can't be explained: the half-dozen baby monitors pointed at holes smashed in the Spains' walls, the files erased from the family's computer, the story Jenny told her sister about a shadowy intruder slipping past the house's locks. And this neighborhood--once called Broken Harbor--holds memories for Scorcher and his troubled sister Dina: childhood memories that Scorcher thought he had tightly under control.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Fun Mystery submitted by obrien1988 on June 24, 2016, 6:32pm Fun mystery set in a half-built housing development. Lots of interesting areas for mysterious sounds and few people around. Creative setting.

Another great read by Tana French submitted by teri on July 2, 2019, 1:12pm Detective "Scorcher" Kennedy of the Dublin Murder Squad returns in this mesmerizing thriller/mystery. It's one of those books that you can't stop reading because you're right there with Scorcher and his partner - totally confused and not knowing what the heck is going on. A great read.

Good Ending submitted by jacks404 on June 29, 2024, 1:11pm Some mysteries/thrillers really miff the ending but this one was good all the way through.
