The Secret Place - Tana French
Though almost everything may seem a matter of life or death during high school, teenagers really can be cruel, and in Tana French’s new novel, The Secret Place (Viking, $27.95), actions have serious consequences. As the Dublin rookie Stephen Moran investigates a murder, he has to cope with not just teenagers but a harsh partner and the delicate matter of his superior’s daughter being named a prime suspect. As she has in the previous volumes of her excellent Dublin Murder Squad series, French brings past crimes and characters into the present case, unfolding everything with exquisite timing and crisp dialogue.
