Twenty years later, a body surfaces in the icy black waters of the River Corrib.

Didn't Like it as Much as the Others.

Publisher's Summary
"With her third novel Dervla McTiernan confirms she's a born storyteller" (Val McDermid)
The unputdownable new novel from the best-selling author of The Ruin and The Scholar.
Police corruption, an investigation that ends in tragedy, and the mystery of a little girl's silence - three unconnected events that will prove to be linked by one small town.
While Detective Cormac Reilly faces enemies at work and trouble in his personal life, Garda Peter Fisher is relocated out of Galway with the threat of prosecution hanging over his head. But even that is not as terrible as having to work for his overbearing father, the local copper for the pretty seaside town of Roundstone.
For some, like Anna and her young daughter, Tilly, Roundstone is a refuge from trauma. But even this village on the edge of the sea isn't far enough to escape from the shadows of evil men.

Why a female narrator for a male main character series!
Dervla McTiernan promises to go on to be a much celebrated crime writer, much like Tana French and Michael Connelly. The plot is complex intrigue that comes together beautifully and keeps you thinking about the story and characters, while you impatiently wait for the next opportunity you can escape to listen. But why choose a female narrator when the main character of the series is a male? The narrator drops her voice into a lower register to manufacture the many male voices in the book -so very, very uncomfortable to listen to. I returned the first book in the series after three chapters, because I found the fake male voices intolerable. I forced myself to listen to this one through to the end. The book is really great, but please change the narration model to a male for the make voices and a female voice for the ladies and girls, if you want to retain the current narrator. The man deserves to come into his own - he is a great detective and makes for a brilliant read, but not a good listen.

Engaging crime drama
I really enjoy this author, she creates interesting plotlines and enough suspense to drive the story. Her characters are engaging and interesting, and the settings are illustrated so that the reader feels a real sense of place. I sometimes feel that Cormac Reilly, however, could do with just a touch more humanism, as s he seems too good to be true.
