Recenzii

Period, pace, plot and pathos: once again Nicola White provides the lot
A delicately constructed web in which the detectives' personal and professional lives intersect with their investigation to devastating effect... Where White goes from here is a matter of the keenest anticipation
Nicola White's 1986 Dublin and its more exotic characters are instantly recognisable to anyone around at that time, which adds spice to a well-told mystery
Rich in atmosphere... refreshingly different... her best yet
A gay cop murdered. Two mismatched and awkward detectives on the case. Gripping
PRAISE FOR THE SERIESA mesmerising tale of secrets and lies rising from the past to strangle the present
As good as it gets: a debut shot through with the real, horrifying cruelty of true crime and a heart-race ending
A terrific new gem of Irish noir
Psychological nuanced and compassionate... gripping
A vivid thriller. Engrossing right up to its sombre resolution
