Irish Month

Book Title: The Searcher
Author: Tana French

The lowdown: Cal Hooper, a recently divorced retired policeman from Chicago wants a quiet life and a place to heal. He buys a dilapidated old cottage in a remote Irish village hoping to restore not only his new home but his soul. When a young teen asks his help to find a missing brother Cal is reluctant to get involved. But he is curious and concerned and soon finds himself investigating the dark side of a seemingly idyllic small town.

A thoughtful read, beautifully written and wonderfully atmospheric.

The right tea for this Irish tale of suspense? Jasmine green, of course!
