A Darkness More Than Night is one of Michael Connelly's Harry Bosch series, but you can easily enjoy it as a standalone. It's also a great series.
My review of A Darkness More than Night
The Coast Road: A Novel by Alan Murrin
Loved this poignant literary fiction focussed on women who couldn't get out of their marriages in the 1990s thanks to Ireland not allowing divorce.

If Michael Robotham is the author, you are guaranteed a great read, and the fourth instalment of his Cyrus Haven series, Storm Child is no exception. But will there be more of this interesting cast? We can only hope. 5★shttps://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

Here's my review of The Altar Girls, the lucky (and gripping!) 13th instalment in Patricia Gibney's series featuring Garda Síochána D.I. Lottie Parker. A return to form after an underwhelming 12th book IMO.
