Book Review of In the Woods (Dublin Murder Squad, Bk 1)

In the Woods (Dublin Murder Squad, Bk 1)


While I wouldnt call it a page-turn, because it was somewhat slow at times, I was drawn into this story and I needed to know how it ended.

Ms. French occasionally becomes lost in reflection -- I didnt really need to know the main characters every single thought -- it made for a really long book. And, since its written by a woman, but is being told from a mans view point, it didnt always seem realistic. Do men really think like that?! Other than that though, I found In the Woods to be a compelling, easy-to-read thriller, with lots of intriguing twists and turns.

In the Woods solves one mystery, but leaves another unresolved. I can see how this would annoy some readers. I am holding out hope that Adam (Rob) Ryans story will be explained in Tara Frenchs next book The Likeness.
