Detective Antoinette Conway worked hard to join Dublin's Murder Squad. Being the only female detective on the force is more difficult than Conway ever imagined. She is constantly on the defensive mode against some of her fellow D's. Conway and her partner, Stephan Moran, are coming off of a long night shift when they catch a case. A young, beautiful woman was found dead in her flat. It appears to be an open and shut case as the young lady had a date scheduled the night before, but Conway can't shake the feeling that she has met the victim before. A visit to the deceased's best friend reveals that she had a secret boyfriend. That revelation sends Conway and Moran down a path that could jeopardize their lives and threaten their careers. Will they be able to solve the murder before their reputations and lives are completely destroyed?
Tana French has to be one of the most talented writers to ever grace our planet. Each one of her mysteries is more - everything - than the last. The Trespasser is one of those double-meaning titles. Does it refer to the person who killed Aislinn Murray or does it refer to Antoinette Conway, the only woman in a boys club? Conway is tough as nails, but there were many times when I felt that she was borderline paranoid. Her partner, Moran, was a good guy who was trying to please Conway in every way he could, sometimes going down paths that were a waste of time. When they finally got to the truth of the matter they had two choices. Ignore it and save their careers or reveal the truth and end their careers on the Murder Squad. -- CLICK HERE FOR SPOILERS - .
Bottom line - The Trespasser is Tana French at her finest. You have murder, intrigue, and a female detective with a chip on her shoulder in a man's world. If you love a good mystery you won't be disappointed.
