THE SEARCHER

Roger Clark's American-Irish-British background makes him uniquely qualified to narrate Tana French's tense story of a Chicago cop who is trying to solve a mystery far outside his jurisdiction. Divorced and weary with police work, Cal wants nothing more than a quiet retirement in the Irish countryside, fishing and renovating an old cottage. But against his will, he's drawn into the disappearance of a local youth and soon discovers that his quiet retreat holds many secrets and hidden dangers. French's powerful resolution is slow to build, unfolding in long stretches of dialogue, which Clark manages with particular ease and conviction. Fans who've been anticipating French's next audiobook will not be disappointed. She's at the top of her form here and in Clark has one of her most adept and effective narrators. D.A.W.
