(2) YA Bobby's family moves from the Dublin slums to the countryside. Their new house has a dark history, including a girl's death and the previous tenant's disappearance. Thompson (The New Policeman, The Last of the High Kings) shifts gears for this gritty crime thriller with only the barest hints of fantasy, though the Irish setting once again works its own kind of magic.
