Description
Toby Hennessy, recovering from a brutal attack, moves into his uncle's sprawling Dublin home, a place steeped in memories of his youth and complicated family dynamics. As his uncle's health declines, Toby finds himself drawn into a web of secrets and long-buried resentments, particularly concerning his cousins and their childhood friends. What begins as a quest for answers about his own assault soon unravels into a deeper investigation of a past crime, forcing Toby to confront uncomfortable truths about himself and those closest to him. Tana French masterfully crafts a compelling narrative that delves into the nature of memory, identity, and the corrosive power of secrets, offering a departure from her signature detective series to explore a mystery from a unique, deeply personal perspective.
