If you're familiar with her it's likely for her Dublin murder Squad series but her new book The Hunter takes place outside of that series it's a sequel to 2020s the Searcher.
The Hunter is set in the same imaginary town of AR Mel where the Searcher was but this time cow Hooper who moved there from the US and when he retired as a police detective and was looking for a little bit of peace and quiet which he didn't get.
