Tana French (2008) In the Woods. French's debut definitely stands appart from the usual run-of-the-mill thrillers. Her main characters, two police detectives, try to solve the murder of a 12 year old girl whose body is found at the site of an archaeological dig in a Dublin suburb. As they probe into the victim's troubled family history they are drawn back into the childhood trauma of one of the detectives. An intelligent, beautifully written thriller that builds unnerving psychological pressure.

Sheila Pim (2001) A Hive of Suspects: An Irish Village Mystery. In the village of Drumclash, Ireland, Pim develops a most excentric plot, in which amateur apiarist Edward Gildea uncovers the truth of niggard beekeeper Jason Prendergast's death. A weird story.
