As many of Tana French's characters say, Jaysus! That was a helluva ride that crackled from start to
finish. There was never a point in which the pacing was off or I found myself wondering how there were still another 200 pages to go.

The characters were stellar and real-life; it was interesting to be in DI Antoinette Conway's head, even when she had run unto obstacles or approached things in a way not everyone does. It's been awhile since I read #5 in the series, in which DI Conway's partner, Stephen Moran, is the driver. It would be interesting to go back and hear his POV now that we've heard hers.

As always, Tana French has an amazing here for dialogue and sneaks in poetic flights when you least expect it. She really is a gifted writer and seems to be improving her game as she goes along. I've now read all of the Dublin Murder Squad books, as well as the standalones and am itching for another book from her.
