Story
Flynn was only a teenager when her parents were killed in a terrible accident. Too young to lose her parents, too young to take on responsibility for her younger sister Kaiya, too young to protect Kaiya from the harshness of their new lives in the following years. Desperate to help her sister, Flynn reaches out to Willa Tomlinson, a grief counsellor renowned for helping her patients cope with profound loss. Under Willa’s influence and care, Kaiya finally seems to turn a corner, joining the climate action collective that Willa leads.

I love McTiernan’s style. She builds her characters such that I become connected and need to know what is going to happen to them. Her details and her attention to providing her material with incredible description draws me in every time.

Story
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.

I have loved all of the Cormac Reilly series and this was another good one. I think the narrator may be one of my favourites on audible. I do hope the author will continue writing this story or at least remain in this genre. Love it!!

Not my favourite

I had hard time getting into this one as the narrator’s voice for Bosch was just awful. Sounded like an 80 year old drunk. Sadly this thru off the entire book for me, not too mention it was more about the secondary character than Bosch.
