![]() ![]() ![]() Yet somehow I’d missed Broken Harbor (2012), the fourth in the popular detective series. With each installment in her Dublin Murder Squad books - The Likeness in 2008, Faithful Place in 2010, The Secret Place in 2014, The Trespasser in 2016, and her first stand-alone, The Witch Elm, in 2018 - I’d hopscotched down the path of her rain-splattered, unsettling, unabashedly Irish mysteries. I’d read her novels with near-religious devotion ever since her 2007 debut, which I’d spotted at the Barnes & Noble by my parents’ suburban Philadelphia home and swallowed down in one long gulp. I hound Viking’s publicity department so diligently for publication dates and galley copies that one member of the team, upon meeting me at a party, looked a bit unnerved and said, “Oh, you’re the Tana French nut.” I thought I was a Tana French completist until I sat down to write this essay. ![]()
