We're looking forward to that.
I was thinking the exact same thing for the Dunmore East book, The Lies Between Us, because you know exactly where the cottage is.
She mentions all the locations.
So it's really, really good.
And a lot of Dublin people and Kilkenny people visit Dunmore East on their holidays.
So it's a really good one.
Charlene Hurtubise.
Hurtubise.
Yeah.
She wrote The Polite Art of Drowning back in 2023.
So this is only her second novel.
Now, I thought this was absolutely brilliant.
I loved this book.
It's about Saoirse Byrne.
She's an artist living in an idyllic life up in Donegal, in the wilds of Donegal, with her loving partner, Dahi, and his two children, two daughters.
Saoirse is preparing for an exhibition in Dublin and she unexpectedly wins a prestigious award that she didn't apply for.
So she is now in the spotlight.
She doesn't want to be in the spotlight.
Because this is where her life begins to fall apart.
And the novel weaves between Michigan, where she left a disturbing childhood, and then her travels to Ireland for a better life.
