Remember Frenchs top cop, Mick "Scorcher" Kennedy? Hes back, puzzling over the murder of Patrick Spain and his two children, found at one of those half-built luxury developments riddling now-broke Ireland; Patricks wife, Jenny, languishes in intensive care. Weirdly, the baby cams are all turned to holes bludgeoned in the houses walls, and Jenny recalls an intruder who got past every lock. Worse, the case upends Scorchers sister, Dina, recalling a trauma from their childhood. With Deborah Harknesss Shadow of Night, among the publishers biggest fiction of the year; get multiples.
