In the Woods

A very interesting character study in the form of a murder mystery. French's mastery of voice is truly incredible.

But I think this book has some first novel problems. The voice over in the beginning warning about lies, for instance. Also, the true bad guy was immediately recognizable. I'll avoid spoilers, but it's a very old trope.

It is interesting how this book does not have a happy ending at all. It makes me curious about how the rest of the series is set up. I'll definitely come back to the Dublin Murder Squad later on.
