The story is told with Ms French's characteristically masterful command of incisive dialogue and intricate prose.

Whilst there, a skull is found in the trunk of the tree of the book's title and the subsequent events cast not only Toby's future but his past and present into doubt. He takes on the care of his terminally ill uncle Hugo at the family estate as he convalesces. It recounts the story of Toby, a socially privileged young white man who, after a night out with friends, is brutally beaten and left for dead, when he disturbs two burglars.He gradually has to come to grips with the fact that the future he presumed would be his is now unlikely to be so. 'The Wych Elm' is her first standalone crime thriller. Tana French is the author of the six books in the critically acclaimed 'Dublin Murder Squad' series. This gripping tome with a very slow fuse culminating in a spectacularly explosive, unexpected ending chronicles the transformation of the protagonist, Toby, as he sees his life unravelling before him.
