Review:

Every holiday needs a good crime novel and French's skilful thrillers are tailor-made to terrify (Guardian)

Utterly realistic on many levels. Sibling rivalries, class conflicts, old grudges, adolescent flirtations and memories of childhood violence are all deftly embedded in this novel, as is the richly idiomatic Dublinese. (New York Times)

Gripping. Tana French's third novel hooks the reader from the outset; the characters are masterfully drawn, and the author's ear for Dublin dialogue is pitch-perfect. (Irish Independent)

A gripping, literate thriller laced with black humour (Irish Times)

French copperfastens her reputation as an author of exceptional insight and talent. (Sunday Independent)

She lifts the lid on Dublin and offers a haunting portrait of a man belatedly dealing with his demons (Mail on Sunday)

Faithful Place is compelling and carefully crafted crime fiction, with complex psychological undertones. (The Canberra Times)

Book Description:

A compelling psychological mystery from one of the most exciting new voices in crime fiction
