Faithful Place by Tana French
From Tana French, author of the forthcoming novel The Hunter, "the most important crime novelist to emerge in the past 10 years" (The Washington Post), the New York Times bestseller called "the most stunning of her books" (The New York Times) and a finalist for the Edgar Award.Back in 1985, Frank Mackey was a nineteen-year-old kid with a dream of escaping hisi family's cramped flat on Faithful Place and running away to London with his girl, Rosie Daly. But on the night they were supposed to leave, Rosie didn't show. Frank took it for granted that she'd dumped him--probably because of his alcoholic father, nutcase mother, and generally dysfunctional family. He never went home again. Neither did Rosie. Then, twenty-two years later, Rosie's suitcase shows up behind a fireplace in a derelict house on Faithful Place, and Frank, now a detective in the Dublin Undercover squad, is going home whether he likes it or not.
Tana French was born in Ireland and raised in Ireland, Italy, the United States, and Malawi until settling in Dublin in 1990. She studied professional acting at Trinity College in Dublin and has experience in theater, cinema, and voiceover. Faithful Place, The Likeness, and In the Woods, which won the Edgar, Anthony, Macavity, and Barry awards for best debut novel, are her works. Her spouse and daughter reside with her in Dublin.
