About this listen
The inspiration for the major new BBC drama series Dublin Murders.
When he was 12 years old, Adam Ryan went playing in the woods one day with his two best friends. He never saw them again. Their bodies were never found, and Adam himself was discovered with his back pressed against an oak tree and his shoes filled with blood. He had no memory of what had happened.
Twenty years on, Rob Ryan - the child who came back - is a detective in the Dublin police force. He's changed his name. No one knows about his past. Then a little girl's body is found at the site of the old tragedy and Rob is drawn back into the mystery. Knowing that he would be thrown off the case if his past were revealed, Rob takes a fateful decision to keep quiet but hope that he might also solve the twenty-year-old mystery of the woods.

Two years ago, a hostile Prime Minister launched the Monochrome inquiry, investigating "historical over-reaching" by the British Secret Service “to investigate historical over-reaching.” Monochrome’s mission was to ferret out any hint of misconduct by any MI5 officer—and allowed Griselda Fleet and Malcolm Kyle, the two civil servants seconded to the project, unfettered access to any and all confidential information in the Service archives in order to do so. But MI5’s formidable First Desk did not become Britain’s top spy by accident, and she has successfully thwarted the inquiry at every turn.

Ireland, murder, suspense, a little bit of romance—what more could I ask for! Great narrator too. Looking forward to #2.

Terrible narrator
The story might be ok, very hard to tell with a narrator whose inflections never change, even during dialogue. Will not listen to him again.

Gripping
Tana French’s narrator was excellent, deftly performing a variety of regional Irish accents and using inflection naturally and to strong effect. The story, of a murder squad detective, Rob Ryan, and his female partner, working a case in Knocknaree that has heavy personal implications for Rob, is intricately woven and richly told. It was very suspenseful and I had chills multiple times. I blazed through this audio book and didn’t want it to end. The reason I took off one star is because some of the description was a bit overwrought, and though I truly enjoyed the complicated and unreliable narrator/main character Ryan, I found some of his observations to be unrealistically written. Overall though, I was a bit obsessed with this book and I can’t wait to get the second in the series!

Whyyyyy
It kept me listening right to the end..., which normally says to me - it's a good story, and it is!
. ... until you hear "Audible hopes you enjoyed this program" and you sit there....huh? dumbfounded.
The narration was difficult to follow because his voice is monotone. I had to zip back many times to figure out 'who's talking now?' because the characters blended together.
I feel a love/hate relationship with this book.

2 Stars at best.
I'm sorry but I really hated this book. My reasoning why will give away spoilers. 2 Stars only because I did make it all the way through. It drags you along in such a way that it feels like it's just about to get good.
I wouldn't really recommend it. There are far better books in the same genre, even some great ones which also take place in Ireland.
