In the Woods

This is a modern-day, moody, dark, police investigation into a murder of a child whose body is found in a controversial archaeological dig site in the woods of Ireland. It's a first person tale told through the eyes of a cop who has his own childhood secrets to hide and a unique relationship with his female partner.  The two partners have a great rapport and their back-and-forth digs at one another serve to lighten the mood and even provide a laugh or two. This book has everything to keep me wanting to turn to the next page.  I will say that I figured out whodunnit and why quite early on, but I suspect the author may have wanted the reader to figure it out so that the sense of suspense is increased. I did not see the final plot twists coming. I will definitely read more by this author.
