The trespasser dh lawrence Being on the Murder Squad is nothing like Detective Antoinette Conway dreamed it would be Her partner Stephen Moran is the only person who seems glad she s there The rest of her working life is a stream of thankless cases vicious pranks and harassment Antoinette is savagely tough but she s getting close to the breaking point Their new case looks like yet another by the numbers lovers quarrel gone bad Aislinn Murray is blond pretty groomed to a shine and dead in her catalog perfect living room next to a table set for a romantic dinner There s nothing unusual about her except that Antoinette s seen her somewhere before And that her death won t stay in its neat by numbers box Other detectives are trying to push Antoinette and Steve into arresting Aislinn s boyfriend fast There s a shadowy figure at the end of Antoinette s road Aislinn s friend is hinting that she knew Aislinn was in danger And everything they find out about Aislinn takes her further from the glossy passive doll she seemed to be Antoinette knows the harassment has turned her paranoid but she can t tell just how far gone she is Is this case another step in the campaign to force her off the squad or are there darker currents flowing beneath its polished surface The Trespasser Dublin Murder Squad 6 So pleased with my reread of this one I definitely appreciated it the second time around and it satiated my police procedural need for the moment I m left wondering if she ll come back to the series based on the ending of this one it could go either way but I m unsure who the focus would be on moving forward All in all another fab read from Tana French 0143110381 Tana French is just fantastic. Book The trespassers book You know I actually have very little author loyalty By that I mean I can easily dislike a book by an author I have previously loved and vice versa a second or third chance can lead to a new favourite But at this point I feel completely safe going into Tana French s novels I settle down to read them with such faith in the author because she is so consistently good For me I don t have to wonder whether this one will be good or that one will be good because the author just is that good. EBook The trespasser catalyst I loved this book You may notice that this review is lacking in quotes but that was another thing I picked up on while reading this French s fantastic scenes and little pieces of dialogue are all about the context A certain line is snort out loud funny because you know the characters so well you can just picture Detective Conway delivering it Another scene is creepy because French has built the story up to that moment so well And I can t quote the whole book to you so I guess you ll just have to read it As always the characterization is absolutely perfect These characters come to life and they are complex hilarious stubborn and so damn likable even when they shouldn t be The Trespasser is told from the perspective of Antoinette Conway and anyone who read the last book knew this was going to be freaking awesome Her narrative voice is bitchy as fuck goddamn her sarcasm is biting I love her. Mystery thrillers the trespasser summary Her unlikable attributes become likable as French peels back the layers I think it s great how her books are about the detectives as much if not than the murder mystery It s extremely compelling to read a thriller where you care so much about the narrator Conway s hilarious dynamic with Steve Moran is also perfect I won t detail the mystery you can read the blurb if you want and you ll find out soon enough if you read it but I will say that TF knows exactly how to weave lots of intertwining little mysteries and surprises throughout so even those readers who work out one reveal will be shocked by others or at least be shocked by the hows and whys which are the most interesting mysteries of all right The question I always get about this series is Do I have to read them in order You don t but I think you should Here s why The mysteries all stand on their own and you don t need knowledge of the previous books to understand them However French introduces each narrator in the previous book Just gives us a glimpse of them to pique our curiosity and I think that s important We see them from the outside we wonder about them and then we get their story I think it works incredibly well So that s my suggestion. Book The trespasser catalyst The Trespasser is so well plotted the characters are memorable the atmosphere is creepy when it suits there s a lingering melancholy after the book ends and I literally laughed out loud several times What could I want Blog Facebook Twitter Instagram Youtube Store 0143110381 congratulations semifinalist in goodreads best mystery thriller category 2016 my very one sided love affair with tana french continues to me each book in this loosely connected series has been better than the one before however The Secret Place was a little bit of a hiccup for me in terms of this oft expressed declaration it was definitely not better than Broken Harbor which might be my all time favorite the teenspeak got to me a bit and it was the first time she decided hey let s throw in some supernatural stuff because i m tana freaking french and i can do no wrong but that element kind of threw me for a loop and i didn t think it was successful however with this book she is back in full force and i m smitten than ever. Kindle The trespasser destiny what s so great about her is that she is proficient nay masterful at every aspect of her craft so it looks good from every angle and there s literally something for everyone there s an intriguing central puzzle for the mystery fans her characters are original and deeply constructed for the literary fiction fans she is excellent at controlling the pacing so it s neither too slow for a beach read nor too zippy if you want to become deeply immersed in a plot it s spooky and suspenseful and smart and so so funny. The trespasser book and her descriptions it s like being there with all your senses engagedIn the Castle grounds the street lamps are still on but the city is lightening barely into something sort of like morning It s not raining which is good somewhere across the river there could be shoe prints waiting for us or cigarette butts with DNA on them but it s freezing and damp a fine haze haloing the lamps the kind of damp that soaks in and settles till you feel like your bones are colder than the air around you The early cafes are opening the air smells of frying sausages and bus fumes. Kindle The trespasser williams and she s outdone herself with her central character this time we met detective conway in The Secret Place and we all loved her brash no nonsense toughness and now that she s teamed up with detective stephen moran of both place novels faithful and secret it s just the best gooey icing these two are perfect working partners they get each other and they click in that perfect complementary sherlock and watson way playing to each others strengths and attuned to each others body language and thought processes despite seeming on the surface to be complete opposites moran is easygoing and affable and gets along with everyone while conway well she s been having a rough time ever since she transferred from missing persons to the murder squad part of it is her being the only woman part is her vague ethnicity she never knew her father but he was evidently on the darker side of the skin tone spectrum and part of it is her standoffish attitude it s a chicken egg situation she s been the victim of cruel pranks shut out from cases subjected to sexist and racist remarks and had her own cases actively sabotaged but it s unclear whether her treatment from the boys club murder squad is a response to her fuck off attitude or its cause in any event it has created a toxic working environment where the only ally she has is her partner and she has to work twice as hard as everyone else investigating murders while also making sure she remembers to bring her coffee with her when she leaves the room in case she comes back to find someone has spit in it this additional layer of wariness has taken its toll on her already cranky personality with all that unnecessary stress and doubt and apprehension clouding her judgment. The trespasser summary and for a detective instinct is the most important sense so when she and moran are handed what appears to be a clear cut case of a lover s fight turned deadly but which becomes murkier and murkier the they uncover and when certain members of their squad seem overly involved with the investigation steering them towards certain angles and away from others it doesn t take long for conway s justifiable suspicion of everyone to turn into a emphatic paranoia the tension is built perfectly since we are seeing everything through conway s perspective we re always right there with her second guessing what s really going on what s a trap what s a too easy solution when the other shoe is going to drop it is a very intense and claustrophobic experience it takes a special kind of narrator to be angry at so many different things at once Domestics are mostly slam dunks the question isn t whether you can arrest your guy or girl it s whether you can build a case that ll hold up in court A lot of people love that it pretties up your solve rate looks good to the brass but not me it means domestics get you fuck all respect from the squad where I could do with it because everyone knows the solve came easy Which is also the other reason they piss me off they ve got a whole special level of idiotic all to themselves You take out your wife or your husband or your Shag of the Day what the fuck do you think is gonna happen We re gonna be standing there with our mouths open scratching our heads at the mind blowing mystery of it all Duh I dunno musta been the Mafia Surprise we re gonna go straight for you the evidence is gonna pile up way over your head and you re gonna wind up with a life sentence If you want to kill someone have enough respect for my time to make it someone anyone other than the most gobsmackingly obvious person in the world. EPub The trespasser how do you not fall in love with her hers is an incandescent bitingly expressed brand of anger in which everyone except moran is a target at some point but man does she hate rory the wishy washy nice guy main suspect in his girlfriend aislinn s murder and his cowering floppy haired meekness. EPub The trespasser williams I m amazed this guy manages to get out of bed in the morning without working himself into a panic attack over the chance that he might trip on the bath mat and stab himself through the eye socket with his toothbrush and be left with a permanent twitch that ll ruin his chances of landing an airplane safely if the pilot has a heart attack and doom hundreds to a fiery death. The Trespasser epub reader What if maybe crap is for weak people It belongs to the ones who don t have the strength to make actual situations go their way so they have to hide away in daydreams where they can play at controlling what comes next And that makes them even weaker. The Trespasser kindle store but we re usually the most disgusted by those weaknesses of others that reflect our own weaknesses and insecurities conway is anything but weak but the particulars of her position in the squad have made her susceptible to the very same daydreams in her case speculations and paranoia rather than slappy happy fantasies as rory she doesn t clock the parallel herself but it s there it s a current underneath everything she does putting up her guard making sure her notes are locked up and her browser cleared always anticipating an attack which is the darker side of the what if maybe impulse. Memoirs of a trespasser imaginary authors as with all her novels tana french shines in the way she understands and portrays the innerworkings of the justice system the way crimes are investigated the hierarchies within the various divisions the relationships between detectives and their informants and the press the slippery nature of undercover work and her meticulous detailing of the process of everything from interviewing witnesses to paperwork somehow making it fascinating and also surprising even to people who have watched wayyyy too many crime dramas in their lifetimes. Kindle The trespasser destiny this kind of detailing is a very smart method of adding depth to characterization through a backdoor without having to go full on exposition and it s another example of how she s so damn good at what she does in descriptions like this we get unexpected insight into conway who has left the missing persons squad behind for the bigger flash of murder despite what it is costing her psychologically Missing Persons isn t like Murder In Missing Persons you don t work your case aiming to take down a bad guy you work it aiming to get a happy ending If it even looks like there might be a bad guy to take down mostly it s not your problem any say a body shows up looking dodgy you hand it straight over to Murder You can go your entire career without ever using your handcuffs That attracts a whole different type from Murder or Sex Crime the squads where your mind is focused on the kill shot and happy endings aren t on the menu and it makes for a whole different atmosphere. Mystery thrillers the trespasser cast there is a scene in which conway has to contact her old boss from missing persons and it s just so powerfully bittersweet a moment it hits the reader with the full force of the professional respectful environment she s left behind where she was valued to drag herself into a horrible atmosphere every day knowing she s suited to the work even if she s not getting the credit she deserves which knowledge is no comfort at all. The Trespasser kindle cloud a final word on partnership seriously conway and moran are perfection together and despite her feelings on what if maybes conway does get a little starry eyed over stephen not romantically thank god but in her own distinctive way Once or twice I caught myself daydreaming like a sappy teenager about our future together about someday when we would get the decent cases the genius plans we d dream up to trap the cunning psychos the interrogations that would go down in squad history. The Trespasser epub reader i m a little sad that i know how unlikely it is that we ll ever get another conway driven novel from tana french considering her MO of mixing up narrators with each book she was so appealing to me and the whole trajectory of this book being immersed in an escalating sense of dread and feeling increasingly unmoored and suspicious of everyone was exhilarating and exhausting all at once i loved every minute of it. EPub The trespasser williams thanks a million to anmiryam thank goodness for book angels review to come ohhhh book angels please shower me with blessings blessings shaped like this book come to my blog 0143110381 What does a star rating mean Does it mean this is a work of greatness that deserves to be read by every generation That each word is empathetically chosen each sentence crafted each paragraph placed with an eye to flow That through metaphor symbolism and theme it exposes the reader to some kind of truth That it inspires a passionate response That at this moment I loved it That it made me happy At the end of the day it doesn t matter how many stars I give The Trespasser It wrung me out like a three day fight playing me like an old lover an old enemy hinting in exactly the right ways saying the right words pausing at the best movement to achieve their ends I found myself reading every word but forcing myself to occasionally pause to breathe to consciously unclench the tense muscles in my neck and arms I found myself becoming generally non specifically angry just like Antionette striding through the squad room defensive irritable ready to lash out at annoyances Did I enjoy the experience Not particularly It was not pleasurable to be in such an angry person s head Was I able to break free Not particularly Common sense was able kick in three hours into reading and only an hour or two to go before bed I knew there was no way on earth I d be able to sleep with rage like that simmering below the the surface. Book The trespassers meaning Does evoking strong emotion make it a good book The second evening I read I had time a little less anxiety I knew I d be finishing far before bed And I might of peeked at the ending because French is one of the authors I can t quite trust she plays by different authorial rules I haven t forgotten her first book In the Woods. Kindle The trespassers meaning Does unpredictability make it a good book I did notice as I often do in a French book that I stuttered on her mechanisms the details of her plotting I realized even as I read it that a particular device was used to allow the plot to go the direction it did It felt a little obvious maybe even a little cheap but like the old old lover friend enemy who knows where each button is and how to best employ it it didn t matter I still finished the story exhausted relieved drained. EBook The trespasser catalyst Does obvious make it a bad book Less good I can t even think answer these questions of scale What am I comparing it to The greatest books that exist French s best work That paint by numbers mystery I read last week and said I liked The words like love seem ridiculously weak Did it pull me out of the world move me to black and blue into a night long bleary eyed wheel of emotion All the stars You can assume all italicized words are said with emphasis hand waving drama and occasionally some irritable sarcasm Sometimes the hand waving may come close to the side of your head if you are especially obstinate 0143110381 The Trespasser by Tana French is a 2016 Viking publication Sophisticated breathlessly paced and absolutely riveting Antoinette Conway and her partner Steve Moran are tossed a case involving a young woman named Aislinn whose body was found after a punch to the face caused her to fall and hit her head killing her Initially believing they ve been assigned yet another routine case they soon find themselves burdened with another seasoned detective called in to help them work the case If that weren t frustrating enough they are also hounded by dirty journalist who will stop at nothing to get the lowdown on their case As the pair begin to investigate Aislinn s boyfriend Rory soon becomes their prime suspect However Conway and Moran have a few alternate theories they are batting around and want to hold off on arresting lover boy to see what falls to earth after they shake a few trees However the murder squad seems to be in an all fired hurry to lock Rory up and throw away the key which raises Conway s suspicions but then again she is normally suspicious and paranoid due to the chronic harassment she is subjected to The only way to survive this will be to get the case solved and find out why the brass is so keen on pinning the murder on Rory but with Rory falling right into their hands and the powers that be riding their tale and playing psychological games it will take all the interrogating skills Conway has in her whole body to uncover the truth When I read In the Woods I became an instant fan of Tana French I had never encountered a crime novel written with such a profound literary prose From that point on I couldn t wait for the next book in the series to come out Every single one has been amazing except maybe for The Secret Place which ironically also features Conway and Moran While still a very solid novel it didn t have that same pull as previous installments and I admit I had a sliver of concern about that but this latest installment in the Dublin Murder Squad series immediately erased all those doubts The plot is tightly woven and tense with some of the best interrogation scenes I ve encountered in crime fiction I think the partnership between Conway and Moran is interesting and they seem to have a certain uneasy chemistry between them that adds an element of tension and sizzle to the story We sit there drinking while the stuff we should probably be saying out loud get itself done in the silence. The Trespasser kindle app Conway s internal monologues are dark and edgy the dialogue is razor sharp as Conway s paranoia literally leaps off the page but she is also darkly humorous at times and I came away with a few chuckles and some terrific phrases and colorful metaphors to try out It was about the same thing as everything else humans have done to to each other since before history began power It was about deciding who would be the alpha dogs and who would be at the bottom of the pile The pacing is one of the biggest assets in this novel which was little longer than most thrillers but trust me that is a good thing The way French baited me in time and again toyed with my mind slowly luring me in until I eventually I finally took the bait hook line and sinker was like a cat and mouse game between author and reader The characters are so well drawn and are given ample time to flourish to think things out as the case is worked like a true procedural with lots of interviews and leg work plus the added pressure of abnormal office politics which we all know plays a big part in police work with everyone jockeying for position or trying to cover their own butt I absolutely loved this book and rank it right up there with the first novel which has remained my personal favorite I love gritty hard as nails characters and deep twisty plots with a climactic ending in which the irony is just divine Simply amazing After reading a Tana French novel I always feel like I ve ingested a highly addictive drug because I immediately begin to feel withdrawal symptoms French does not chuck out novels at the speed of light and sound so the wait times in between releases can feel like an eternity so be sure to enjoy and slowly savor every last drop of this novel I know I did 0143110381
