Northern Ireland, spring 1981. Hunger strikes, riots, power cuts, a homophobic serial killer with a penchant for opera, and a young woman’s suicide that may yet turn out to be murder: on the surface, the events are unconnected, but then things—and people—aren’t always what they seem. Detective Sergeant Duffy is the man tasked with trying to get to the bottom of it all. It’s no easy job—especially when it turns out that one of the victims was involved in the IRA but was last seen discussing business with someone from the loyalist Ulster Volunteer Force.

Story
Growing up in the care of her grandparents on Belhaven farm, Lizzie Craig discovers as a small child that she can see into the future. But her gift is selective—she doesn’t, for instance, see that she has an older sister who will come to join the family. As her “pictures” foretell various incidents and accidents, she begins to realize a painful truth: she may glimpse the future, but she can seldom change it. Nor can Lizzie change the feelings that come when a young man named Louis, visiting Belhaven for the harvest, begins to court her.

Not my favorite; still good
This is the tenth book in Jane Casey’s Maeve Kerrigan series. I’ve read them all and look forward to each new story. I like the characters (even Josh) and the stories have been great. This one disappointed a bit. The undercover work was, in my opinion, rather boring. I liked the interpersonal relationship between Maeve and Josh. He seemed much less annoying. The finale of that case was excellent, however, and the thriller aspect came into play. It made it all worth it.

Obsessed with this series. Great book!
I truly love this series. Always look forward to the next one, this one had a long wait! But it delivered. Ending already has me looking forward to the next one. Not a fan of the narrator though. She makes Mauve feel older than she seems by the writing, and her male character voice misses the mark. The earlier audiobooks in the series were narrated better. But the book itself was really enjoyable!

Love Jane bad narrator
Why did Sarah Coombes not read this? I enjoyed the character development. The mystery was solid. This books shines with the wit and intellect of the author. The only downside is the narrator is very miscast. She brings to mind Miss Marple not Maeve Kerrigan. I have to buy the kindle edition to truly enjoy the story. This story starring the lovely Maeve and the Manly Josh breaks my heart a tiny bit. The plight of society’s most vulnerable adults is wrenching. As a parent of a vulnerable adult it really hits home. I highly recommend Jane Casey. There is no one else like her.

I think the whole point of the plot was to give Maeve and Josh a chance to spend time together to solidify their feelings. However, the author threw in yet another barrier to their relationship at the end. the plot ended up convoluted and disappointing. I really needed to hear a good book and only made it halfway through. if it was eligible. I'd return it

Great story; terrible narration.
Despite being a fan of all Jane Casey’s MAEVE KERRIGAN books, this is my last one with this narrator, who has absolutely RUINED them. With her grating tone, odd inflection, and lack of variation, Caroline Lennon’s narration makes it very difficult to get drawn into the story, and nearly impossible really know the ‘voice’ of the individual characters. So dissaponting!
Did no one producing these books READ THE REVIEWS OF BOOKS 8 & 9? They say the same as this review; that the stories were great, but the narration was awful. I’ve struggled through books 8 and 9, but this one, #10, is the last with this narrator. I can’t even finish it. PLEASE bring back Sarah Coomes! I mourn the loss of these engrossing stories and wonderful characters.
