Two sisters find they can't outrun their past in the riveting new thriller from the New York Times bestselling author of Northern Spy Three years after they narrowly escaped the IRA's worst punishment for informing, Northern Irish sisters Tessa and Marian Daly have built a new life in Dublin with their young children. Though Tessa is haunted by the abrupt and violent end to her old life, she does her best to immerse herself in the joys of Finn's childhood and the rhythms of her new job at the Irish Observer. It's a small island, though, and just as quickly as they disappeared, figures from the sisters' past surface to drag them back into the conflict. Tessa is told she must track down her old handler from MI5, Eamonn, and attempt to turn him into an IRA informant, or lose everything. Tessa's reunion with Eamonn revives a host of feelings she has long attempted to bury. As their relationship intensifies and the pressure mounts, long-held secrets rise to the surface, and Tessa must navigate a treacherous landscape of shifting loyalties, all while trying to protect her beloved son. With her signature hair-raising suspense, razor-sharp prose, and rich emotional depth, Edgar Award winner Berry has crafted both an unforgettable portrait of two fierce women in the Daly sisters, and her most spellbinding thriller to date.

I decided to pull my index card notes on Northern Spy before reading this. I‘m glad I did because the 2nd in this series picks up where the first book ends and it‘s advantageous to know Book 1. I really like this series as it has me googling down the Troubles rabbit hole. I‘m fascinated reading both perspectives as an adult because as a kid/teenager I grew up in a pro-IRA community.

Years ago, Tessa‘s sister Marian was IRA turned informer in Belfast. They are now living under new names in Dublin when the past finds them. I loved this. It‘s so well done and builds tension in a way that made me literally stop in my tracks at one point. Highly recommend.

This novel of sisters, loyalty, secrets and the seemingly unending Troubles in Ireland makes for a gripping read. Sisters Tessa and Marian have always been close, but nearly four years ago, Marian‘s actions forced them both to uproot their lives and start over in Dublin. The first scene has their past coming for them both. I held my own breath through much of this! Tense & well-written, I can‘t wait to read more from this talented author!
