Some lines should never be crossed. Police corruption, an investigation that ends in tragedy, and the mystery of a little girl’s silence — three unconnected events that will prove to be linked by one small town. While Detective Cormac Reilly faces enemies at work and trouble in his personal life, Garda Peter Fisher is relocated out of Galway with the threat of prosecution hanging over his head. But even that is not as terrible as having to work for his overbearing father, the local copper for the pretty seaside town of Roundstone. For some, like Anna and her young daughter, Tilly, Roundstone is a refuge from trauma. But even this village on the edge of the sea isn’t far enough to escape from the shadows of evil men.

Editorial Reviews

Editorial Reviews

“McMahon’s soft Irish accent is perfectly in tune with the Irish detective and his colleagues, who include Detective Peter Fisher, here taking center stage…McMahon skillfully voices the female characters, including a traumatized little girl. She also effectively differentiates the male characters. Listeners will be drawn into this timely story of the complex nature of police work.” AudioFile
Cormac Reilly has emerged as an admirable protagonist. The story lines that coalesce into a compelling dramatic narrative will leave the reader breathless and yearning for more from this brilliant author.” Seattle Book Review
“McTiernan does a marvelous job weaving together several seemingly disparate story lines. The intensive plot wizardry she executes in The Good Turn is truly a pleasure to experience.” Dayton Daily News
