Cormac Reilly is set to reopen a case he thought he had left behind twenty years ago. On his first week as a Garda, he discovers two neglected children—fifteen-year-old Maude and five-year-old Jack—waiting in a rundown house, their mother dead upstairs. Now, two decades later, Cormac returns to Galway after leaving his successful detective career in Dublin. As he navigates the complexities of a new police station, memories of Maude and Jack resurface, intertwining with a recent suicide that may connect to the mother’s death. Cormac must discern who he can trust among his new colleagues while confronting the shadows of his past. This gripping debut plunges readers into the dark realities of Ireland and questions who will safeguard those abandoned by the authorities. Acclaimed by readers and critics alike, the novel features authentic characters, a richly detailed setting, and a twisty plot that keeps you engaged from start to finish. Praise highlights its emotional depth, complexity, and the compelling nature of Cormac Reilly, who emerges as a memorable new character in crime fiction. Fans of authors like Tana French and Liz Nugent will find much to appreciate in this expertly crafted tale.
