The most beautiful hinterland of Western Ireland, unhurried rural life, a rare idyll for our days. Calvin Hooper, a middle-aged ex-policeman from Chicago, by coincidence of everyday circumstances plunges into this quiet village pool with the most charming, colorful features. He moves to the island, dreaming of picturesque landscapes, fresh air, peace and emotional communication with witty locals, and eventually takes on the work from which he tried in vain to escape: a local teenager turns to him for help in search of his missing brother. And with how and why everything has been arranged this way since the beginning of time, Kel will have to get to know very closely, to experience it on his own skin.
«The Seeker» of the Irish Tana French, adored by readers around the world, cleverly pretends to be a detective. But, like all the best works in all eras, the novel freely transcends genre boundaries and embraces a conversation about the depths of human souls.
Press about the book:
“A quiet and disturbing story of what the dream of escape could turn out to be. Perhaps French’s best book so far. A kind of masterpiece «
The Washington Post
“The perfect escape to a cool place. Tana French’s style is leisurely and cozy, every page smells and sounds like Ireland. In the days when travel has become almost impossible, this book becomes a real adventure in a new place, unknown, seized with anxiety and a sense of danger. «
