The Good Turn

De: Dervla McTiernan

Narrado por: Aoife McMahon

Some lines should never be crossed.

Police corruption, an investigation that ends in tragedy and the mystery of a little girl’s silence – three unconnected events that will prove to be linked by one small town.

While detective Cormac Reilly faces enemies at work and trouble in his personal life, garda Peter Fisher is relocated out of Galway with the threat of prosecution hanging over his head. But even that is not as terrible as having to work for his overbearing father, the local copper for the pretty seaside town of Roundstone.

For some, like Anna and her young daughter, Tilly, Roundstone is a refuge from trauma. But even this village on the edge of the sea isn’t far enough to escape from the shadows of evil men.

I anxiously await for more in the Reilly series

My second listen!

I’m thrilled that I found Dervla McTiernan’s detective series. I was waiting for the next release and I was not disappointed. Just like the previous books, this one had jaw-dropping twists, turns, surprises, conniving and devious activity plus separate subplots that merge together so well. And the “bad guys” deserve what they get. Listen intently as this audictive listen moves smoothly and fast. Aoife McMahon is indeed one of my favorite narrators and for good reason; I’d be transfixed with her reading a dictionary, cereal box, etc. McTiernan in expertly paired with McMahon and I look forward to more in the Cormac Reilly series. I’m hoping for the next in this suspenseful series. Well worth a treasured credit for sure. Highly recommended! Please, may I have more, more, more? Epic, I say! EPIC! EPIC! EPIC!

Another great one from McTiernan

I loved this series and all of McTiernan’s short stories. Her writing is impeccable and I loved the decision to have the same narrator for all of the books. I’d grown bored of most procedurals until I ran across McTiernan’s work. If you like good writing, well written characters and stories that are believable yet keep you guessing than you should read this book, bur start with the first in the series.

Love this author

I’ve read everything I can get my hands on by this author, Dervla McTiernan, and have loved every single book of hers.

great story

I care about these characters in this book.

this book has a few plot lines interwoven with each other and it's interesting to see how they connect or don't connect.

Good.

I liked it but then I’m biased since I’m from her locale neck of the woods. The plot was a tad convoluted at times but it did come together. Some of the characters a bit mean and wicked for Ireland but I suppose.... reader is excellent. Keep them coming!

Excellent!

Great story, fascinating characters, superb narration. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I thought it was the best in the series so far.

Excellent, despite audio issues

This 3rd installment was the best, by a mile! The other two books in this series were "ok," but this one is amazing! I don't know what happened to this author, but it really came together in book 3. There is depth and complexity and humanity in these characters that I just didn't experience in the previous books. All that to say, this story is really well written and I'm definitely hoping there will be a 4th book coming soon in this series. I read somewhere that the author was working on a new book, but NOT in the CR series... what a shame! Hurry and get back to this one, we are waiting for you.

One important technical problem to note. The audio recording has a tinny echo in parts, as if the microphone is on the wrong setting. It is bothersome, but it does not ruin the narration.

I'm so hooked!

Fantastic series! Please keep them coming! Great characters! Aoife McMahon does an amazing job narrating!

Never Fails

Fast becoming one of my favorite writers of this genre, Dervla McTiernan never fails. Can’t wait for the next Cormac Reilly book because this one was completely satisfying. I highly recommend it but definitely start with the first in the series.

good mystery

I enjoyed the story and narration. just as good as the others if not better.
