Reviews
Praise for Down Cemetery Road "Good characterization, dialogue and well-paced narrative make this confident first novel frighteningly plausible." --Daily Telegraph Praise for Mick Herron "Mick Herron never tells a suspense story in the expected way." --The New York Times Book Review "Stylish and engaging." --Washington Post, Praise for Down Cemetery Road "Good characterization, dialogue and well-paced narrative make this confident first novel frighteningly plausible." --Daily Telegraph "[ Down Cemetery Road ] shifts from domesticity with violence and private detectives--initially seeming something like Kate Atkinson's detective novels in both the quality of the writing and the lightness of tone--to something like Christopher Brookmyre at his best . . . Herron is a major writer of considerable wit and talent."  -- International Noir Fiction Praise for Mick Herron "Mick Herron never tells a suspense story in the expected way." --The New York Times Book Review "Stylish and engaging." --Washington Post

When a house explodes in a quiet Oxford suburb and a girl disappears in the aftermath, Sarah Tucker--a young married woman, bored and unhappy with domestic life--becomes obsessed with finding her. Accustomed to dull chores in a childless household and hosting her husband's wearisome business clients for dinner, Sarah suddenly finds herself questioning everything she thought she knew as her investigation reveals that people long believed dead are still among the living, while the living are fast joining the dead. What begins in a peaceful neighborhood reaches its climax on a remote, unwelcoming Scottish island as the search puts Sarah in league with a man being hunted down by murderous official forces., When a house explodes in a quiet Oxford suburb and a young girl disappears in the aftermath, Sarah Tucker, a young married woman, bored and unhappy with domestic life, becomes obsessed with finding her. Accustomed to dull chores in a childless household and hosting her husband's wearisome business clients for dinner, Sarah suddenly finds herself questioning everything she thought she knew, as her investigation reveals that people long believed dead are still among the living, while the living are fast joining the dead., From the author of Slow Horses and soon to be an Original Series from Apple TV+ starring Emma Thompson and Ruth Wilson.

It's an evening like any other when an explosion rips through the leafy Oxford suburb Sarah Tucker calls home. In the aftermath, a house now stands devastated, with two adults dead and a young girl missing. With the police more interested in keeping the neighbors from rubbernecking than in searching for the missing child, Sarah becomes obsessed with finding her, and enlists the help of Oxford private investigator Zoë Boehm. But Sarah's and Zoë's search reveals more secrets than answers. As Zoë and Sarah draw closer to the truth, they are caught in a web of conspiracy and come up against government forces, cold-blooded mercenaries and vengeful loners. Down Cemetery Road is CWA Diamond Dagger winner Mick Herron's debut novel and the first book in the Zoë Boehm series.
