Some lines should never be crossed. Police corruption, an investigation that ends in tragedy and the mystery of a little girl’s silence – three unconnected events that will prove to be linked by one small town. While detective Cormac Reilly faces enemies at work and trouble in his personal life, garda Peter Fisher is relocated out of Galway with the threat of prosecution hanging over his head. But even that is not as terrible as having to work for his overbearing father, the local copper for the pretty seaside town of Roundstone.

On the night when Caitlin and Olivia's parents leave them to go to a dinner party both girls are full of excitement about being old enough to stay home alone. What they don't see is the figure watching them through the open window. Who, after the girls have fallen asleep, will turn the handle of the unlocked back door. When their parents return, they will find Olivia's bed empty. Their eldest daughter gone. Never to return. Until now. But is the woman who claims to be Olivia really all she seems? And is everything Caitlin said she saw that night really the whole truth?

Too much need to suspend disbelief
Revisado: 09-21-24
Although it is an entertaining read, there are too many times that I found myself thinking, "Oh, come on, that's just a little too hard to believe."

Who hung the headmaster in the playground on the night of the school Halloween Party? Almost everyone in Heppleburn either hated or feared the viper-tongued Harold Medburn. Inspector Ramsay is convinced it was the headmaster’s enigmatic wife but Jack Robson, school governor and caretaker, is determined to prove her innocence. With the help of his restless daughter Patty, Jack digs into the secrets of Heppleburn, and uncovers a cesspit of lies, adultery, blackmail and madness.

Missing Vera and Perez
Revisado: 04-24-23
The plot and story were good, but the character development (especially the detective) was not up to the standard I enjoy in other Cleeves novels.

always satisfying
Revisado: 12-28-20
Ann Cleeves is definitely a favorite, because she combines personality insights, Shetland Island atmosphere and a good mystery. I struggle with this narrator, though, because his voices for Jimmy and Sandy make them sound elderly (to me) when they are not.

audio uneven
Revisado: 08-07-20
I really enjoyed these performances and the stories that supported them . . . .but to hear the actors, I had to turn up the volume. Then the interlude music would be painful, because it was much louder and clearer than the actors. With the magic of today's audio editing technology, I have to believe it would be an easy fix to edit the volume of the music to one more compatible with the spoken performance.

Tana French's debut, In the Woods, hit the New York Times best-seller list and drew rave reviews from the Times (London) and Booklist. Picking up six months later, this riveting sequel finds Detective Cassie Maddox still scarred by her last case. When her boyfriend calls her to a chilling murder scene, Cassie is forced to face her inner demons. A young woman has been found stabbed to death outside Dublin, and the victim looks just like Cassie.

Too contrived, and too introspective
Revisado: 10-07-14
Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
So so. Diverting but not satisfying. I like introspective, brooding detectives, but the main character in this novel spent too much introspective time. (French and her editor were both a little too indulgent of this experienced detective . . . .)
What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)
Not at all surprised.
Which character – as performed by Heather O'Neill – was your favorite?
O'Neill is excellent. Characters have very few redeeming qualities.
Do you think The Likeness needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?
For me, no . . . .no follow up to The Likeness, but would appreciate if French could get back to the characters and interactions of the preceeding book. It was much better -
