THE STUNNING, AWARD-WINNING THRILLER FROM THE MODERN QUEEN OF CRIME FICTION

'To say Tana French is one of the great thriller writers is really too limiting. Rather she's simply this: a truly great writer' GILLIAN FLYNN

'Tana French is one of the most assured crime novelists writing today and Broken Harbour affirms her reputation' TIME OUT

'With Broken Harbour, Tana French should cement her name not only as the queen of Irish crime fiction but the queen of Irish fiction' SUNDAY INDEPENDENT

-------------------------------------------------------

In Broken Harbour, a ghost estate outside Dublin, two children and their father are dead. The mother is on her way to intensive care.

At first Detective Scorcher Kennedy, and his rookie partner, Richie, think this is cut and dry: Pat Spain was a casualty of the recession, so he killed his children, tried to kill his wife, Jenny, and then himself. But inexplicable details keep cropping up.

Soon the neat compartments of Scorcher's life begin to break down, putting both his professional and personal life at risk. As the case reaches its apex, he will be forced to face the truth of what happened to him and his family all those years ago, one dark summer at Broken Harbour.

Kritikerstimmen

I've been enthusiastically telling everyone who will listen to read Tana French. She is, without a doubt, my favorite new mystery writer. Her novels are poignant, compelling, beautifully written and wonderfully atmospheric. Just start reading the first page. You'll see what I mean.
The half finished housing estate with jerry-built boxes is eerily reminiscent of a J. G. Ballard dystopian setting - establishing atmosphere is one of French's many strengths. Gradually, an emotionally jolting story of love, obsession and madness is played out to incredible effect. Since her first novel, In the Woods, was larded with awards in 2007, French has garnered a huge legion of fans and they will be thrilled with this, her fourth and possibly best novel.
The most breathtakingly brilliant and close-to-perfect thriller I've read for a long time.
Tana French is one of those rare novelists who combine a gift for dialogue and characterisation, with suspense, intrigue and fabulous plotting. And she's a beautiful writer, to boot. A real treat.
Edgar-winner French's eloquently slow-burning fourth Dublin murder squad novel shows her at the top of her game . . . French excels at drawing out complex character dynamics

Every time I listen to a Tana French novel I think this is the best one yet. But this is one really great in terms of story and narration. It’s a huge difference with you read as a book - which is great - but to listen to is just takes it to a whole other level! Perfect!

best one yet?

The story is great as always, the reader is awful tho. The way he reads the female characters is ridiculous and quite offensive

Terrible reading performance

Plot und Auflösung im Kern etwas schwach, Klischees werden bedient, jedenfalls spannend genug um durchzuhören, Die charakteristisch für die Autorin gelungene Zeichnung der Akteure, Worldbuilding, und Rahmenerzählung helfen dem Hörvergnügen. Interpreten kommen bei 1.2x Wiedergabe besser rüber.

empfehle Wiedergabe auf 1.2x zu stellen
