I admire Tana French's skill as a writer. If you find yourself skimming to get to the plot, you are missing a lot of her mastery of the art of writing. Her descriptions, mutating observations, and subjective character evolutions are pure literature. You can almost feel Ivy House, smell the benign neglect, see the hole where the Witch Elm used to be. While the plot may not be to everyone's liking, French asks a lot of questions about memory that assail us all, more so as we age. Facts as memories can be mutable, even if only 10 years ago.
