Тоби Хеннесси - беспечный счастливчик, которому всегда и во всем везет. Но однажды он сталкивается в своем доме с грабителями, которые жестоко избивают его и оставляют умирать. И даже тут удача не изменила Тоби - он выжил и постепенно восстанавливается. Пытаясь оправиться от травм, физических и душевных, Тоби решает пожить у своего дяди, в старом семейном доме, который все называют Домом с плющом. Однако надеждам Тоби на спокойную размеренную жизнь в доме детства не суждено сбыться. В старом вязе обнаруживается пугающая находка, которая переворачивает жизнь и самого Тоби, и всех его близких. Расследование давнего преступления открывает перед Тоби бездну: он понимает, что больше не может верить всему тому, в чем никогда не сомневался, что, возможно, его счастливое прошлое — фикция, мираж, а он сам вовсе не тот милый, славный парень, каким всегда себя считал. Сложный психологический детектив о том, как наши действия меняют нас и на что мы способны, если больше не знаем, кто мы есть на самом деле.

Retired detective Cal Hooper moves to a remote village in rural Ireland. His plans are to fix up the dilapidated cottage he's bought, to walk the mountains, to put his old police instincts to bed forever. Then a local boy appeals to him for help. His brother is missing, and no one in the village, least of all the police, seems to care. And once again, Cal feels that restless itch. Something is wrong in this community, and he must find out what, even if it brings trouble to his door. Our greatest living mystery writer weaves a masterful tale of breath-taking beauty and suspense, asking what we sacrifice in our search for truth and justice, and what we risk if we don't.

From the writer who “inspires cultic devotion in readers” (The New Yorker) and has been called “incandescent” by Stephen King, “absolutely mesmerizing” by Gillian Flynn, and “unputdownable” (People) comes a gripping new novel that turns a crime story inside out. Toby is a happy-go-lucky charmer who’s dodged a scrape at work and is celebrating with friends when the night takes a turn that will change his life—he surprises two burglars who beat him and leave him for dead. Struggling to recover from his injuries, beginning to understand that he might never be the same man again, he takes refuge at his family’s ancestral home to care for his dying uncle Hugo. Then a skull is found in the trunk of an elm tree in the garden—and as detectives close in, Toby is forced to face the possibility that his past may not be what he has always believed. A spellbinding standalone from one of the best suspense writers working today, The Witch Elm asks what we become, and what we’re capable of, when we no longer know who we are.

Antoinette Conway, the tough, abrasive detective from The Secret Place, is still on the Murder squad, but only just. She's partnered up with Stephen Moran now, and that's going well - but the rest of her working life isn't. Antoinette doesn't play well with others, and there's a vicious running campaign in the squad to get rid of her. She and Stephen pull a case that at first looks like a slam-dunk lovers' tiff, but gradually they realise there's more going on: someone on their own squad is trying to push them towards the obvious solution, away from nagging questions. They have to work out whether this is just an escalation in the drive to get rid of her - or whether there's something deeper and darker going on.

'A gripping read for those still pining for GONE GIRL' Elle's top five beach reads The photo shows a boy who was murdered a year ago. The caption says, 'I KNOW WHO KILLED HIM'. Detective Stephen Moran hasn't seen Holly Mackey since she was a nine-year-old witness to the events of Faithful Place. Now she's sixteen and she's shown up outside his squad room, with a photograph and a story. Even in her exclusive boarding school, in the graceful golden world that Stephen has always longed for, bad things happen and people have secrets. The previous year, Christopher Harper, from the neighbouring boys' school, was found murdered on the grounds. And today, in the Secret Place - the school noticeboard where girls can pin up their secrets anonymously - Holly found the card. Solving this case could take Stephen onto the Murder squad. But to get it solved, he will have to work with Detective Antoinette Conway - tough, prickly, an outsider, everything Stephen doesn't want in a partner. And he will have to find a way into the strange, charged, mysterious world that Holly and her three closest friends inhabit and disentangle the truth from their knot of secrets, even as he starts to suspect that the truth might be something he doesn't want to hear. From the multi-award-winning author of Sunday Times and New York Times bestseller In the Woods, The Secret Place is a searing novel of psychological suspense.

In Broken Harbour, a ghost estate outside Dublin - half-built, half-inhabited, half-abandoned - two children and their father are dead. The mother is on her way to intensive care. Scorcher Kennedy is given the case because he is the Murder squad's star detective. At first he and his rookie partner, Richie, think this is a simple one: Pat Spain was a casualty of the recession, so he killed his children, tried to kill his wife Jenny, and finished off with himself. But there are too many inexplicable details and the evidence is pointing in two directions at once. Scorcher's personal life is tugging for his attention. Seeing the case on the news has sent his sister Dina off the rails again, and she's resurrecting something that Scorcher thought he had tightly under control: what happened to their family, one summer at Broken Harbour, back when they were children. The neat compartments of his life are breaking down, and the sudden tangle of work and family is putting both at risk . . .

V dedinke neďaleko Dublinu sa v ruinách starej kamennej chatrče nájde telo mladej ženy a Cassie vyzerá prakticky ako jej dvojča. Keďže polícia nemá podozrivých ani žiadne stopy, vyhlási, že obeť je zranená, ale žije a Cassie zaujme jej miesto ako študentka Trinity College a spolubývajúca ďalších štyroch študentov. Aj napriek stresu z práce v utajení si Cassie svojich svojráznych, izolovaných spolubývajúcich, rovnako ako nový život v kedysi impozantnom dome obľúbi.Vyšetrovanie oddelenia vrážd neprináša takmer žiadne výsledky a je na Cassie, aby im aspoň naznačila ako ďalej. Niekto jej dvojníčku ubodal na smrť a Cassie ho musí nájsť. Dokonalá podoba má všetko: nezabudnuteľné postavy, svieže dialógy, inteligentné psychologické náhľady, stúpajúce napätie, takmer hmatateľné prostredie a úžasne evokatívnu, maliarsku prózu.

Vtedy v lese je fascinujúca detektívka – plná akcie, psychologických zápletiek a postáv takých skutočných, že Vám pripadajú ako priatelia. Je tu všetko: tragickí milenci, prípad zmiznutých detí, psychopati, mylné dedukcie, trúfalý, zábavný a nespoľahlivý rozprávač. Príbeh vás zdrapne za golier a s krikom vtiahne do lesa. Na oltári z doby bronzovej, objavenom na posvätnom mieste v Knocknaree, sa nájde mŕtve dieťa. Je to talentovaná balerína, dcéra muža, ktorý vedie kampaň proti diaľnici, naplánovanej cez vzácne archeologické nálezisko. Policajt – rozprávač prežil iné nevyriešené zmiznutie v lete roku 1984, čo lesu dodáva desivo klamlivé čaro. K tomu pristupujú politické ťahanice, posvätná hrdosť detektívnych partnerov, rodina, v ktorej niečo fakt smrdí, čudná partia archeológov a príšerný, strašidelný les.
