Your favorite Dublin books?

What’s everyone’s favorite murder squad book? And why? My number one is The Trespasser. It used to be The Likeness, but Antoinette Conway was such a compelling character. Probably my favorite of everything I’ve read from Tana French.

WARNING: Spoilers for The Trespasser!!

I listened to it on audio and I actually had to take breaks because Conway’s suspicion and paranoia was fucking with me. She’s so intense and her inner monologue was sometimes relatable and sometimes painful.

I loved her rapport with Stephen Moran from the previous book. I was really rooting for him throughout The Secret Place (also found him extremely relatable, his ambition and his jealousy of the beautiful boarding school class). It was great to see him achieve his goal and then even better to see 2 partners having each other’s backs.

The ending was really satisfying too, especially with the mystery’s final resolution.

Also I’m middle eastern (much closer to my heritage than Conway) but I loved the representation nonetheless.
