I listened to The Trespasser by Tana French on audio, which had its downsides. It was about twenty hours long! I thought that I'd never finish it, which is not a good feeling to have lurking in the background when you are working through a book. It set a hurried tone, which made it difficult for me to slow down and really concentrate on the investigation. Perks of listening to this on audio were that the narrator spoke in an Irish accent and I could hear how the names were supposed to be pronounced, which is sometimes difficult for me!

This one was about a beautiful young blonde woman found murdered in her home. The investigation zeroes in on her boyfriend very quickly, but the detectives on the case believe that there's something more at play here. Loyalty, importance of familial bonds, and the desperation that people feel when the integrity of their lives is threatened all played a large role. And as usual, French does a great job with the police procedural. It's always fun to get an inside look at the mind of a detective and the games that they have to play to find the perpetrator. This doesn't beat my favorite of the Dublin Murder Squad Series (The Likeness), but still enjoyable!
