«A mesmerising tale of secrets and lies rising from the past to strangle the present." - Val McDermid «The Rosary Garden is as good as it gets: a debut shot through with the real,horrifying cruelty of true crime and a heart-race ending." - Denise Mina «In the Rosary Garden is a moving, intelligent and courageous book - both a family story and a genuine thriller." -AL Kennedy Ali Hogan is leaving school, all the possibilities of adult life glistening before her, when her discovery of a murdered newborn in the convent garden in Ireland shatters her world and resurrects half-formed memories of her childhood. For detective Vincent Swan, this baby s resting place in the grounds of a prosperous school, in an Ireland riven by battles of religion and reproduction, makes the case a media sensation even as the church moves to suppress it. Swan is no friend of the Catholic church; Swan doesn t have many friends. Even his own wife is a mystery to him. Ali flees the media spotlight, seeking refuge at her uncle s farm in remote Buleen where she starts to put together the fragments of an older tragedy, another child's death. Meanwhile in Dublin, Swan s investigation is stalling, forcing him to consider that the scraps of evidence point to Ali Hogan herself... Winner of the 2013 £10,000 Dundee International Book Prize, In The Rosary Garden is a powerful thriller from a startling new voice in fiction - bold, brilliant and guaranteed to leave you breathless.
