French's books are always tightly-written and filled with complex characters and unexpected twists. This one is no exception.

In it, the discovery of a body in a long-abandoned tenement sets off the action. The "Dublin Murder Squad" is only peripherally involved with this one, but it still delivers the punch.

BTW, this is the first French I've read where I nailed the "whodunnit" fairly early on. I was patting myself on the back right up to the end, when the importance of the "whydunnit" took center stage and I had to admit I'd been off on the wrong track ... again.
