I think people who like Walsh Family books from Keyes have one book that resonates in particular with them. I think this one does for me.
The mystery unfolding as we learn of Helen's struggle with mental health complemented each other week, and have background to solving the case. 
Characters are very strong in this, and the writing would make me snort in laughter here and there. 

Narrator, Niamh Daly, did a wonderful job
