It's a blazing summer when two men arrive in the village. They're coming for gold. What they bring is trouble. Cal Hooper was a Chicago detective, till he moved to the West of Ireland looking for peace. He's found it, more or less - in his relationship with local woman Lena, and the bond he's formed with half-wild teenager Trey. So when two men turn up with a money-making scheme to find gold in the townland, Cal gets ready to do whatever it takes to protect Trey. Because one of the men is no stranger- he's Trey's father. But Trey doesn't want protecting. What she wants is revenge.

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.

Cal Hooper thought a fixer-upper in a bucolic Irish village would be the perfect escape. After twenty-five years in the Chicago police force and a bruising divorce, he just wants to build a new life in a pretty spot with a good pub where nothing much happens. But when a local kid whose brother has gone missing arm-twists him into investigating, Cal uncovers layers of darkness beneath his picturesque retreat, and starts to realize that even small towns shelter dangerous secrets.

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.

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 . . .
