Irish detective fiction has enjoyed an international readership for over a decade, appearing on best-seller lists across the globe. But its breadth of hard-boiled and amateur detectives, historical fiction, and police procedurals has remained somewhat marginalized in academic scholarship. Exploring the work of some of its leading writers—including Peter Tremayne, John Connolly, Declan Hughes, Ken Bruen, Brian McGilloway, Stuart Neville, Tana French, Jane Casey, and Benjamin Black—The Contemporary Irish Detective Novel opens new ground in Irish literary criticism and genre studies. It considers the detective genre’s position in Irish Studies and the standing of Irish authors within the detective novel tradition. Contributors: Carol Baraniuk, Nancy Marck Cantwell, Brian Cliff, Fiona Coffey, Charlotte J. Headrick, Andrew Kincaid, Audrey McNamara, and Shirley Peterson.

Irish crime fiction, long present on international bestseller lists, has been knocking on the door of the academy for a decade. With a wide range of scholars addressing some of the most essential Irish detective writing, Guilt Rules All confirms that this genre has arrived. The essays collected here connect their immediate subjects—contemporary Irish crime writers—to Irish culture, literature, and history. Anchored in both canonical and emerging themes, this collection draws on established Irish studies discussions while emphasizing what is new and distinct about Irish crime fiction. Guilt Rules All considers best-sellers like Adrian McKinty and Liz Nugent, as well as other significant writers whose work may fall outside of traditional notions of Irish literature or crime fiction. The essays consider a range of themes—among them globalization, women and violence, and the Troubles—across settings and time frames, allowing readers to trace the patterns that play a meaningful role in this developing genre.

‘Wow!!... I was left quite breathless… Kept me gripped.’ Book Reviews by Shalini Eddie stands at his door anxiously waiting for her to arrive, touching the box in his pocket for luck. He doesn’t hear the footsteps behind him until it’s too late… Detective Finnegan Beck is called to a violent crime scene at a remote house near the rural Irish town of Cross Beg, where a dog lies whimpering beside his beloved owner’s body. At first it looks like a burglary gone wrong. But Beck spots something his colleagues didn’t. The victim, Eddie Kavanagh, was wearing his smartest clothes. He’d brushed his hair. And, on closer inspection, a small velvet box containing an engagement ring is discovered in his pocket, along with a letter to a nameless woman, which seems to suggest she’s in danger. Those who knew Eddie have no idea about a female friend though – there’s been no one in his life since a girl who he’d loved and who’d broken his heart decades before. So who was the woman Eddie was waiting for? And did his connection with her ultimately lead to his murder? When a beautiful young woman is then found beaten to death, murdered exactly as Eddie had been, Beck has to ask – is the danger over? Or is it just beginning? An absolutely addictive and atmospheric crime novel that will leave you gasping for breath. If you love gripping thrillers from Rachel Caine, Robert Dugoni and Kendra Elliot, you won’t be able to put this one down. Readers are loving Her Last Goodnight: ‘It had me hooked from the very beginning. There was a lot of action… as well as twists and turns which kept me on the edge of my seat until the very end… If you love a good detective story, this is the book for you.’ Goodreads reviewer, 5 stars ‘Her Last Goodnight reminds me of the great crime thrillers... Dark, gripping and with the plot slowly unfolding until it reaches its shocking conclusion.’ NetGalley reviewer ‘Evocative, hauntingly beautiful, Her Last Goodnight pulls you into the closed world of rural Ireland… Add Michael Scanlon to the ranks of Tana French and Peter May.’ Goodreads reviewer, 5 stars ‘Crikey it is such a darn good read I just want more… Fast-paced… A brilliant storyline… many heart in my mouth moments.’ Books from Dusk til Dawn, 5 stars ‘A cracking read… plenty of action and a solid and addictive mystery to the goings-on in the small town with many twists, turns and red herrings I failed to predict… Engrossing and compulsive. Highly recommended.’ Reader’s Retreat ‘Brilliant plot. Small town Ireland in all its claustrophobic glory but with modern day crimes… Great stuff!’ Goodreads reviewer, 5 stars ‘Beck is a flawed character, but a very likable one—I find myself rooting for him to not just solve the case, but to make progress on his own personal journey… I found the story deeply satisfying, the sort of book I linger over and don't want to end.’ Goodreads reviewer, 5 stars ‘A spellbinding trip with the police department in rural Ireland. Detective Finnegan Beck and Garda Claire Sommers figure prominently in this excellent murder mystery… A page turner!’ Goodreads reviewer, 5 stars ‘This author certainly knows how to hook you and then reel you in.’ Goodreads reviewer ‘It’s compelling, dark and has many interesting and surprising twists… Twisted and very intelligent; it kept me turning pages into the night… I loved [this] book.’ Goodreads reviewer ‘I really enjoyed this book. It kept me engrossed from start to finish. A real page turner.’ NetGalley reviewer, 5 stars ‘If more stars were available, I would be giving this one more than five.’ Goodreads reviewer, 5 stars ‘Spellbinding… Excellent murder mystery… A page turner!’ Goodreads reviewer, 5 stars

*NATIONAL BESTSELLER* *SHORTLISTED FOR THE CWA HISTORICAL DAGGER AWARD* A Globe and Mail Best Book of the Year A New York Times Editors’ Choice Pick “Banville sets up and then deftly demolishes the Agatha Christie format…superbly rich and sophisticated.”—New York Times Book Review The incomparable Booker Prize winner’s next great crime novel—the story of a family whose secrets resurface when a parish priest is found murdered in their ancestral home Detective Inspector St. John Strafford has been summoned to County Wexford to investigate a murder. A parish priest has been found dead in Ballyglass House, the family seat of the aristocratic, secretive Osborne family. The year is 1957 and the Catholic Church rules Ireland with an iron fist. Strafford—flinty, visibly Protestant and determined to identify the murderer—faces obstruction at every turn, from the heavily accumulating snow to the culture of silence in the tight-knit community he begins to investigate. As he delves further, he learns the Osbornes are not at all what they seem. And when his own deputy goes missing, Strafford must work to unravel the ever-expanding mystery before the community’s secrets, like the snowfall itself, threaten to obliterate everything. Beautifully crafted, darkly evocative and pulsing with suspense, Snow is “the Irish master” (New Yorker) John Banville at his page-turning best. Don't miss John Banville's next novel, The Lock-up!
