Irish noir  this is a spectacular read for Donna Tartt and Tana French fans' Kirkus   In the
seaside town of Kinlough  on Ireland's west coast  three old friends are thrown together for
the first time in years. They - Helen  Joe and Mush - were part of an original group of six
inseparable teenagers in the summer of 2003  with motherless  reckless Kala Lanann as their
group's white-hot centre. Soon after that summer's peak  Kala disappeared without a trace.  Now
it's fifteen years later. Human remains have been discovered in the woods. Two more girls have
gone missing. As past and present begin to collide  the estranged friends are forced to
confront their own complicity in the events that led to Kala's disappearance  and to try to
stop Kinlough's violent patterns repeating themselves once again...  Against the backdrop of a
town suffocating on its own secrets  in a story that builds from a smoulder to a stunning
climax  Kala brilliantly examines the sometimes brutal costs of belonging  as well as the
battle in the human heart between vengeance and forgiveness  despair and redemption.   'Tana
French fans will relish Kala ' Guardian   Best Summer Reads    'The thriller of the moment' The
i Paper   Best Summer Reads    'An addictive read with explosive revelation' Daily Telegraph
