At an expensive private girls' school, a snapshot of a smiling boy from the neighboring boys' school appears on the bulletin board.
of a smiling boy from the neighboring boys' school. On top of the boy's face is a carved letter: I KNOW WHO KILLED HIM. Chris had been murdered almost a year ago, his body found on the idyllic lawn of the girls' school. How did he get there? Who was he meeting there? Who was the killer? All of these questions remained unanswered. Until one day a girl shows up at the police station and hands Detective Stephen Moran this photo with an inscription. Stephen has been waiting for years for his chance to get into the Dublin police homicide unit. And that chance has sailed into his hands. Together with Antoinette Conway, the murder squad's bitch of record, he goes to St. Kilda High School to sort things out. What they don't realize is that they will find themselves in a veritable hornet's nest where young girls, so innocent and sweet in appearance, are actually more dangerous than the worst criminals. The new detective Tana French, for whom the characterization of "Irish Donna Tartt" is fixed, is a great psychological novel, built on an excellent detective framework. It is a psychological drama, a novel of growing up, and, of course, a classic detective with a closed circle of suspects and developing in the strange world of a private school.
