<![CDATA[In the Woods]]>

false <![CDATA[In the Woods]]> 237209 26 A gorgeously written novel that marks the debut of an astonishing new voice in psychological suspense As dusk approaches a small Dublin suburb in the summer of 1984, mothers begin to call their children home. But on this warm evening, three children do not return from the dark and silent woods. When the police arrive, they find only one of the children gripping a tree trunk in terror, wearing blood-filled sneakers, and unable to recall a single detail of the previous hours. Twenty years later, the found boy, Rob Ryan, is a detective on the Dublin Murder Squad and keeps his past a secret. But when a twelve-year-old girl is found murdered in the same woods, he and Detective Cassie Maddox—his partner and closest friend—find themselves investigating a case chillingly similar to the previous unsolved mystery. Now, with only snippets of long-buried memories to guide him, Ryan has the chance to uncover both the mystery of the case before him and that of his own shadowy past. Richly atmospheric, stunning in its complexity, and utterly convincing and surprising to the end, In the Woods is sure to enthrall fans of Mystic River and The Lovely Bones. 3088141 book 17 5 2007 In the Woods total:7599|5:1185|4:3056|3:2351|2:796|1:211| 7599 27005 11481 2256 237209 0670038601 9780670038602 6894 1995 In the Woods 3.55 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1194628861m/237209.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/237209.In_the_Woods 2 31 true Mon Jun 02 08:16:11 -0700 2008 Mon Jun 02 08:27:06 -0700 2008
