One of the Best

The Faithful Place by Tara French is an intriguing novel that mixes a mystery whodunit set within the dynamics of a dysfunctional family (and neighbourhood at times). This novel has wonderful prose, gritty dialogues, a complex and ruthless detective and a murderer whose motivations in the end make you feel sorry for him/her (don’t want to spoil by revealing the gender).

This is one of the best novels I have read this year and also is a kind of book that makes the passion for reading so rewarding. This is definitely a book worth spending time on.

Rating: 4.5/5
