I finished In The Woods recently and promptly bought everything Tana French has written. I read her with a highlighter in my hand highlighting each turn of phrase which bowls me over. I particularly enjoyed your treatise of this debut novel with the emphasis on scars and how they are different from wounds. I’m glad you offered a spoiler alert as well. I didn’t see the minor as the accessory to the murder. So happy French kept the minor under the radar til the end. Knowing how deeply scarred the protagonist was kept me turning pages as his train derailed. Bravo French. She deserved those awards. Thank you for a great review
