This is an excellent start to a new series by Tana French. The two main characters: mysterious teenager Trey Reddy and retired, emotionally scared Cal Hooper are especially appealing. At first Cal doesn't know what to make of Trey. He isn't even certain if she is male or female. She dresses in androgenous clothes and reveals nothing about her life. All he knows is Trey is persistent. Once she learns he was a detective, she is determined to enlist Cal's help in finding her beloved older brother, one of the few people in Trey's life who has shown her kindness. The novel shows the insularity of rural Irish life where villagers close ranks even when something very bad has occurred. This is a wonderful mystery which slowly develops the friendship and trust between Trey, whose home life is blighted by a mother who can barely cope and an absent, ner'do-well father. The ending and the reasons for the "murder" are beyond tragic. The prose is poetic and fitting for the lyricism of the Irish countryside.

A nice story about a regular boy in a super-powered family, but when the world needs him the most he finds a special power, one he uses to save everyone

It was about Mr. Snail running late to deliver all of the mail. It was good.

“so they lost their boat. it was silly. It was cool. It was good. it had little baby with Tommy. I like it when Dil was on Spike.

Cute! I listened to the audio book and the narrator (Natalie Naudus) really grew on me. Overall a nice story, but a little slow in some parts.

Good
