The Courtship Gift

He had watched them both for weeks. Prosperous, self-satisfied David Neale and his wife, Anna, so sweet, so gentle. He had tracked them through the streets and suburbs of Dublin. And thought of the times that had been and the times to come. Now David is dead and Anna is discovering that nothing about her life with him is the way is seemed. There are debts to be paid, infidelities to be faced, and she is alone, defenceless and vulnerable. Which is, after all, exactly what the man who calls himself Matthew has always wanted. He will watch and wait. And when he is ready he will bring her his gift . . . his courtship gift of death and betrayal, woven together in a shroud of silk . . . 'A superior thriller; a terrific read; a most welcome addition to the canon of contemporary Irish fiction.' Irish Times

I Saw You

For 10 years, newly retired policeman Michael McLoughlin has been haunted by the case of a young woman brutally murdered and the affection he felt for the victim's mother, Margaret. A favor for a friend leads him to another woman who has lost a child—her daughter has been found drowned in the same lake her stepfather died in years earlier. Was it an accident, suicide, or murder? Margaret, too, has been tormented by thoughts of that long, hot summer so many years ago. Memories of her daughter and the killer give her no peace and she finally returns to Dublin to face her demons, leading her back to a man she never thought she'd see again, and to a mother with grief to match her own. This is a chilling and dark novel of love, revenge, and atonement.
