About this listen
They'll call you names.
Hurt your feelings.
Push you to your death.
In the garden of an abandoned house, Luke Connolly lies broken, dead. The night before, he and his friends partied inside. Nobody fought, everybody else went home safely. And yet, Luke was raped and pushed to his death. His alleged attacker is now in custody.
DCI Tom Reynolds is receiving the biggest promotion of his career when a colleague asks him to look at the Connolly case, believing it's not as cut and dried as local investigators have made out. And as Tom begins to examine the world Connolly and his upper class friends inhabited, the privilege and protection afforded to them, he too realises something.
In this place, people cover up for each other. Even when it comes to murder.

Critic reviews
Engrossing
A stunning read, and Jo's protagonist has very firmly planted himself as a leading Irish fictional detective
Fabulous . . . Clever, pacey, compulsive
Refreshing and... full of twists
Spain's blackly comic touch pulls us through a brilliantly dark tale
A brilliantly dark tale
Takes a sharp look at Ireland's wealth divide and questions just how tolerant of difference Irish society really is
Brilliantly crafted . . . each piece of the puzzle is gradually put together and keeps you gripped until the end
A clever novel . . . gradually exposing a chilling history of dysfunctional families
Enthralling - Spain dissects her characters' secrets with razor-sharp precision
A scathing overview of the Celtic Tiger years . . . [a] vivid portrait of a fascinating monster
This gripping novel is more of a whydunnit than a whodunnit
A contender for the most arresting opening paragraph of the year . . . This is crime fiction for grown-ups, taking its time to explore the ins and outs of human psychology
A clever and unusual premise . . . punchy and energetic . . . a brilliant hook and rapid-fire ride
An intriguing Rubik's Cube of a book that kept me turning the pages to get to the truth. So well plotted and beautifully written. I absolutely loved it
I can't praise The Confession enough. Brilliant writing, great story . . . a really cracking read
A dizzying tale of lives falling apart that has you addicted from the very first page. I found it impossible to put down, so desperate was I to get to the truth
Here is my confession: I've never read Jo Spain before but now I'll be buying all of her books. The Confession is brutal and brilliant
The Confession is jaw-dropping. Clever. Addictive. Beautifully drawn characters. Masterful storytelling
Loved it! Fabulous characters, superbly written, twists, turns & ends with a punch
An absolute cracker of a book, compulsive, deviously plotted and intense - I will be recommending this to everyone
Jo Spain is such a talent. The Confession had me in its thrall from the first page, revealing the dark side of the Celtic Tiger
I loved this twisty slice of domestic noir
