Du kannst nicht fliehen aus Faithful PlaceFrank Mackey, Undercover-Ermittler, hat seine Familie seit 22 Jahren nicht gesehen. Die vier Geschwister, den trinkenden, gewalttätigen Vater, die ruppige Mutter. Er wollte der Armut und Perspektivlosigkeit seines Viertels für immer entfliehen - zusammen mit seiner ersten großen Liebe Rosie. Doch die hatte ihn versetzt und war allein nach England aufgebrochen, so hat Frank es jedenfalls immer gedacht. Bis Rosies Koffer und ihre Fährtickets in dem alten Abbruchhaus in der Straße seiner Kindheit gefunden werden. Frank muss zurück nach Faithful Place - und feststellen, dass er diesen dunklen Ort immer in sich getragen hat.

When he was twelve years old, Adam Ryan went playing in the woods with his two best friends. He never saw them again. Their bodies were never found, and Adam himself was discovered with his back pressed against an oak tree and his shoes filled with blood. He had no memory of what had happened. Twenty years on, Rob Ryan - the child who came back - is a detective in the Dublin police force. He's changed his name. No one knows about his past. Then a little girl's body is found at the site of the old tragedy and Rob is drawn back into the mystery. Knowing that he would be thrown off the case if his past were revealed, Rob takes a fateful decision to keep quiet but hope that he might also solve the twenty-year-old mystery of the woods.

The course of Frank Mackey's life was set by one defining moment when he was nineteen. The moment his girlfriend, Rosie Daly, failed to turn up for their rendezvous in Faithful Place, failed to run away with him to London as they had planned. Frank never heard from her again. Twenty years on, Frank is still in Dublin, working as an undercover cop. He's cut all ties with his dysfunctional family. Until his sister calls to say that Rosie's suitcase has been found. Frank embarks on a journey into his past that demands he reevaluate everything he believes to be true.
