The Librarian's Husband's Book Club discussion

Let’s set the stage for our March 2025 read! This is the place for any pre-reading discussion about In the Woods by Tana French, our Ireland on the Page pick.

As dusk approaches a small Dublin suburb in the summer of 1984, mothers begin to call their children home. But on this warm evening, three children do not return from the dark and silent woods. When the police arrive, they find only one of the children. He is gripping a tree trunk in terror, wearing blood-filled sneakers and unable to recall a single detail of the previous hours.

Twenty years later, the found boy, Rob Ryan, is a detective on the Dublin Murder Squad and keeps his past a secret. But when a 12-year-old girl is found murdered in the same woods, he and Detective Cassie Maddox (his partner and closest friend) find themselves investigating a case chillingly similar to the previous unsolved mystery. Now, with only snippets of long-buried memories to guide him, Ryan has the chance to uncover both the mystery of the case before him and that of his own shadowy past.

This one sounds so good. I am excited that my library has it available.

I have the audio book and look forward to listening to it.

Finally joining in.
Last book took me longer than expected, work is so tiring at the moment I couldn't keep my eyes open for long. I hope this is enough of a page turner to keep me awake a bit longer in the evening.

I am so bored with his book I do not think I can go further . Anyone feel the same or does it get better.

It gets better, Dawn but it does have a lot of fluff b4 then.
