![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I was a big fan of Vikas Swarup’s novel Q&A, which was later adapted into the film Slumdog Millionaire, so when I heard Swarup had written a murder mystery, I already knew I was going to enjoy it. All of Tana French’s murder mystery books are filled with richly depicted characters and intriguing storylines however, this one in particular stands out for its unique setting and perspective. A boy is found murdered on the grounds of an all-girl boarding school, and the only lead Detective Stephen Moran has is a note on a bulletin board that says, “I know who killed him.” The novel is half told through the perspective of the detective as he works to solve the crime, and the other half is told months before the murder from the perspective of a teenage girl at the boarding school. This novel is teen boarding school fiction meets murder mystery, which is really the best of both worlds, as far as I’m concerned. ![]()
