In the Woods by Tana French

In the Woods by Tana French, Mystery, 429 pages.
This was our November book discussion book. The first in French's popular Dublin Murder Squad series, this introduces Detectives Rob Ryan and Cassie Maddox. They are two of the newer members of the squad, and while they have proved themselves to be good detectives, their newest case could be too much for them. A twelve-year-old girl has been found murdered in the woods in Knockaree, outside of Dublin. What no one else besides Cassie knows is that Twenty years ago, Rob, known as Adam Ryan then, was the twelve-year-old survivor of a gruesome crime in those same woods. His memories of that crime and his reactions to this, threaten to disrupt the carefully re-built life he has made for himself and threaten the careers of both officers. The ending, told from a particular point of view, left some of the book group members dissatisfied, but we had a good discussion.
