Really enjoyed putting this month’s column together - some terrific, surprising, funny, angry, and original books.

My February column with @briancliff.bsky.social dropped today in The Irish Times. We review Sara Gran’s Little Mysteries, Michael Idov’s The Collaborators, Julia Dahl’s I Dreamed of Falling, Rachel Donohue’s The Glass House, and TC Parker’s Tradwife. Each one a stellar read. #crimefiction #mysteries
