I haven't been so enthralled by a mystery in a very long time. This book is very "literary" and very Irish. The language is spare, poetic, and beautiful even if the subject matter is not. I am actually regretting posting my copy and might buy a new copy "for keeps". I cannot recommend this one highly enough, especially if you are a lover of language. Gorgeous.
