The Tresspasser By Tana French

Book Cover - The Tresspasser

A Tana French trademark is that each book features a different narrator around whom the entire world of the novel revolves. In The Trespasser, Detective Antoinette Conway is tough, fierce, and sure of herself, but her working life is filled with thankless cases, vicious pranks, and harassment from colleagues.

She is about to reach her breaking point when a new case comes across her desk. At first it looks like a routine lovers’ tiff gone bad, but then both the investigation and the victim’s life start to intersect with Antoinette’s in ways that can’t be ignored.

The Trespasser explores the stories we tell ourselves, the ways we bend reality to fit those stories, and what happens when they get dangerously out of control.

Tana French’s bestsellers include: In the Woods, The Likeness, and Faithful Place
