Event Details

The Friends are excited to host critically-acclaimed mystery writer, Sarah Stewart Taylor. Ms. Taylor will discuss, A Stolen Child, the fourth book in her atmospheric and intricately plotted Maggie D’Arcy thriller series starring a former Long Island homicide detective who is now a Garda Officer in Dublin, Ireland.

After months of training, former Long Island homicide detective Maggie D’arcy is now officially a Garda. She’s finally settling into life in Ireland and so is her teenage daughter, Lilly. Maggie may not be a detective yet, but she’s happy with her community policing assignment in Dublin's Portobello neighborhood. When she and her partner find former model and reality tv star Jade Elliot murdered—days after responding to a possible domestic violence disturbance at her apartment—they also discover Jade's toddler daughter missing. Amidst a nationwide manhunt, Maggie and her colleagues must look deep into Jade’s life—both personal and professional—to find a ruthless killer. Perfect for fans of Tana French and Kate Atkinson, this nuanced and gripping police procedural with a winning heroine at its center is “Riveting... filled with red herrings." — Library Journal (starred review)
