Absolutely LOVE this series! I got to know #𝘽𝙤𝙮𝙡𝙚&𝙆𝙚𝙣𝙚𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙮 even more in this 3rd book! This case they’re on is riveting! It can be read as a stand alone also! I loved the 1st book & missed the 2nd one, but didn’t miss a beat!

Thank you, S.A. Dunphy, Bookouture & NetGalley for my copy. All opinions are my own.

The 3rd in the Boyle and Keneally series, this police procedural is a great read.

When a 9 year old goes missing from the terminal illness ward of the hospital, the cops are in a hurry to find her. The parents seem to be hiding something. While they catch the possible kidnapper within a short span of time, the child is still missing.

This story has a bit of a cult and Irish folklore reference.

Thank you Netgalley and Bookouture for the ARC

Oh, I am really enjoying this series! The writing is fabulous and there is always some Irish folklore included which just makes reading the books by this author a no-brainer for me :)

The team of Boyle and Keneally are back with an odd case. A very ill little girl is kidnapped from her hospital bed and when the kidnapper is found dead, things turn very strange indeed. Jessie and Seamus are ably supported by Terri, and course their boss, Dawn, is pretty impressive herself. There is quite a poignant scene in here with Dawn which gives you an idea about where she has come from and why she is the way she is.

Poor little Rosie needs to be found, and fast, and it is up to the team to do it. Of course, they have to wade through a lot of evidence and red herrings abound. They have some great skills though.

Amazing series and I can't wait for the next one! No pressure, of course ;)

5 stars from me.

Thank you to NetGalley and Bookouture.

Awesome roller-coaster ride of the book. I love this team of Boyle and Keneally. The character development is just wonderful and gets better and better with each book.
Can't wait to read more!

This is the third in the Boyle and Keneally series and can absolutely be read as a standalone but as you know I love a good book series so definitely start at the beginning. As for this one all I can say is WELL HOLY GOD what a rollercoaster of a read. I haven’t left it down since I started it 2 days ago. Great pace with no let up and such an original storyline with so much going on and as for the twists and turns - just buckle up. I absolutely love Jessie and her team and there relationships with each other. S.A Dunphy is one of those authors that you don’t need to read the blurb first and when I saw the booktour for this one it was a straight out ‘yes please’. I just hope it won’t be long till the next one. Now walk don’t run and thank me later.

Her Child’s Cry Dunphy by S.A.
Boyle & Kenneally #3

WOW…finished the last page and that word popped out of my mouth though nobody was there to hear me say it. Just…WOW!

What I liked:
* Returning to the team to see what they would be dealing with next
* The team: a tight unit that works well together
* Jessie: behaviorist, team-leader, has an interesting past explored in previous books, intelligent, tenacious, focused…like her
* Seamus: brilliant, skilled, lethal, kindhearted, sees connections, problem solver, team focused, gets things done…like him
* Terri: computer genius, tech guru, puzzle solver, there for her team, gets the job done
* Dawn: Ireland’s Garda – or chief police person, Jessie’s friend from childhood, interesting past, strong, interesting, intelligent…want to know more about her
* The police procedural aspects of the story
* Where the clues led the team…and how the plot was exposed
* The writing
* Getting to see how Rosie – the kidnapped girl – was doing
* The surprises…and there were many
* The tie-in with Uruz: an easy to hate serial killer that will probably be featured throughout the series
* Being able to detest the bad guys…and there were quite a few of them!
* Thinking about the future and what it holds for the team…hope some good will come their way eventually.

What I didn’t like:
* Exactly who and what I was meant not to like – evil people and the atrocities they committed
* Having to say goodbye to the team not knowing what will happen next

Did I enjoy this book? Yes
Would I read more in this series? Definitely

Thank you to NetGalley and Bookouture for the ARC – This is my honest review.

The crime fighting team of Jessie Boyle, Seamus Keneally, and Terri Kehoe make for the perfect team in that their various strengths, combined with their real affection for one another, make them formidable adversaries. As with the previous books in this series, it is the rapport and camaraderie between the members of the crime fighting team that kept me thoroughly invested in the outcome.

The fate of little Rosie Blake keeps the reader rooting for the team's success. Along the way they encounter gangsters, corrupt financiers, morally bereft lawyers, old Irish sects, and the famous Dublin "Hellfire Club".

The great characterization of the small investigating team, along with the Irish setting and lore have kept me invested in this series and I'm already looking forward to book four.

This series DOES NOT disappoint. I love these characters - their relationship with each other, their growth and humanity - realistic and every day problems are not hidden. The writing has me literally on the edge of my seat, trying to sneak in another page before life pulls me back to reality.
Rosie Blake disappears - a little girl being treated for cancer. Her parents are desperate for her return. With little information, Jessie and her team are called to the case.
With the death of the prime suspect, Jessie and her team are left with more questions.
S A Dunphy's ability to weave in Irish folk tales and culture, heightened suspense - I am obsessed with this series!
Grab a copy - you will not be disappointed!

Shane Dunphy has written a corker of a 3rd instalment in this crime series! It features forty-odd-year-old criminal behaviourist and social psychologist, Jessie Boyle and decorated detective, Seamus Keneally. Jessie, formerly of London Met's Violent Crime Task Force, has returned to her homeland.

With its Dublin based crime setting, this tale of crime and folklore is disturbing and creepy. History and mythology are blended into the current action to create an intriguing tale. Jessie, Seamus and Terri make a marvellous team, and I will be continuing this promising series. A clever and compelling police procedural with a twisty finish.

I received a complimentary copy of this novel at my request from Bookouture via NetGalley and this review is my unbiased opinion.

There are a few authors that I will want their books without reading the blurb, and Shane is among those authors. Even when I read only a handful of books per year, I still read all of his books.
So naturally I was delighted to get started on this book, and as always its a brilliant read.
A child age 9 who is in hospital for cancer treatment has been kidnapped, an appalling crime as the child is very ill.
A compelling read, brilliantly written.

The third in the Boyle and Keneally series and it is getting stronger and stronger.

Again we have a story based loosely around some Irish folklore as a child with cancer goes missing from a hospital ward and only has days to live without her chemo medication.

The writing here again is snappy and the characters are really finding their feet in the series. We have the boss feature a lot more in this one and its a great addition, making up a quartet of a team.

A mixture of folklore and real crime, the author mixes it up nicely and balances it all really well to make this a real page turner. I do wonder how many more can be based around a story of folklore. I think the characters are established enough in their own right to feature in a straight out crime story/thriller without the folklore background.

I really am loving this series, it’s one of the strongest out there at the moment. The storytelling, characterisation and general pacing make these books an absolute pleasure to read. An easy 5 stars for me.

Thanks to the publisher for the ARC through Netgalley.

Her Child's Cry by S A Dunphy is a thoroughly Irish mystery, loaded with Irish word and phrases, Irish mythology, and Irish history. Dawn Wilson, Ireland's Garda commissioner has put together a team to investigate particularly complicated or horrifying crimes. She has spared no expense. This team is made up of criminal behaviorist, Jessie Boyle; Detective Sergeant Seamus Kennelly; and genealogist, researcher, and computer guru, Terri Kehoe. Between the four of them, there is no crime that will go unsolved, including the latest: the kidnapping of Rosie Blake, an eight-year-old in the midst of a chemotherapy treatment who was stolen from the hospital, unbelievably, with no one seeing anything. A camera caught the kidnapper unloading the child in a car park outside of Montpelier Hill lookout, where they had found the body of the kidnapper, Richie Roche, but no sign of Rosie. Where was she?

This team was made up of people who were the perfect complement for one another. Their skills meshed perfectly and they investigated, knowing the timeline they had to work with. The child would die without her medication. They had to hurry. But the things they were discovering seemed not to fit together . . . until they did. It turns out there are some pretty awful people in the world, including a kidnapper who would accept the ransom and then resell the child for their own nefarious purposes. All the pieces finally fit and after a couple more deaths, the team rescued Rosie and caused some deaths of their own. This is a wonderful series, full of problem solving and courage put to good purpose. All of the team have their own stories and they are would seamlessly into the greater story. The is an overarching story as well that pits Jessie against a crazed serial killer from her past who will one day have to be dealt with. This is a fabulous series. I highly recommend it.

BLOG TOUR REVIEW

Review for 'Her Child's Cry' by S.A Dunphy.

Read and reviewed via NetGalley for S.A Dunphy, Bookouture publishers and Bookouture anonymous

Publication date 18th May 2022.

This is the fifth sixth I have read by this author but his third book by S.A Dunphy. It is also the second book in the 'Boyle & Keneally' series but can be read as a standalone. I have also read the first book in this series called 'Bring Her Home' and the second book in this series 'Lost Graves' which I loved and would definitely recommend.


I was originally drawn to this book by its beautiful eye catching cover and its intriguing synopsis and title. The synopsis stated that 'Fans of Patricia Gibney, Lisa Gardner and Lisa Regan will not want to miss this.' I am a huge fan of Lisa Gardner, Lisa Regan and Patricia Gibney so am looking forward to seeing if this lives up to this statement. I am also a huge fan of Shane Dunphy and if this is half as good as Shane's previous books it is sure to be a page turning read. I must admit I was also biased due to the publisher being Bookouture. I have yet to read a book published by Bookouture that I haven't enjoyed. Hopefully this won't be the first... Watch this space! (Written before I started reading the book).

This novel consists of a prologue, 64 chapters, 11 very short chapters from Rosie, Eugene, Harold and Garth and an epilogue set over 6 parts. The chapters are short to medium in length so possible to read 'just one more chapter' before bed...OK, I know yeah right, but still just in case!

This book is based in Ireland 🇮🇪 UK 🇬🇧. The bonus for me of books that are partly or fully based in the UK is that I live in the UK and have sometimes visited places mentioned in the book which makes it easier to picture. The fact that this book is based in Ireland is even better as I have been on holiday in Ireland many times so may even recognise some places Shane has set the book around.

This book is written in third person perspective with the main protagonists being Jessie Boyle, Seamus Keneally and Terri Kehoe. The benefits of third person perspective and especially with multiple protagonists are that it let's you see the bigger picture of what's going on and you get to know more characters more, what they are thinking and what they are doing. It feels like you get to see the whole picture and not miss out in anything.

'Her Child's Cry' discusses some topics that may trigger some readers or may not be suitable for others. I like to point this out ahead of time in my reviews so you can judge if this book is for you or not. In this book Shane discusses/includes child kidnapping.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVED IT!! Well I must say Shane you are very talented man!!! What another absolutely addictive read!! I am already eagerly awaiting the fourth book in the 'Boyle & Keneally' especially after that breath taking cliff hanger ending!!!

This book is extremely well written with vivid descriptions that places you write in the heart of the storyline and leaves you hearing the roar of the helicopter, seeing the stars on the mountain and has your heart pounding. The title, cover and synopsis work perfectly with the storyline.

This is the third crime novel I have read by Shane and he is one of those rare authors who books are fantastic and yet also keep getting better and better. I have read most of his non fiction books from when he was working as a child protection worker and loved them all. They were heartbreaking and I shed many tears but they were fantastic books. Shane then started writing crime novels and was intrigued by the change of genre and was looking forward to seeing if these book would be as good as his previous non fiction work. I am very pleased to say that Shane writes fiction just as fantastically as non fiction!!!

This storyline is definitely unique which I loved. I'm a big fan of crime but it can be tedious reading similar storylines so this one was a nice refreshing change. It is extremely paced and addictive. I was completely absorbed from page one until the fantastic explosive ending. It is ram packed with suspense, mystery, history, mythology, horror, tension, humour and everything you want in an unputdownable page turner. I loved the gothic atmosphere surrounding this story with the Reavers, the Balor, The Hell fire Club and the dark storyline. There were so many twists and turns throughout leading you to one red herring and then another whilst constantly questioning yourself who is actually behind everything all along. I enjoyed that there were several different sub plots and so much going on without getting confusing. I absolutely loved the first book 'Bring Her Home' and the second book 'Lost Graves' but I must say this one hooked me in even more which I wouldn't have thought was possible after the absolutely addictive previous books. It was definitely something about the creepy storyline that I just loved. The book wrapped up perfectly with everything explained (it's a pet hate of mine where a book ends and vital parts seem to have gotten lost in the storyline and never mentioned again) but I will say that I was actually gutted with what happened to a certain person although they weren't particularly nice it was sad to see as I would have loved to see if anything happened between them and another character. Ummm... I was going to say something else but won't as I don't want to spoil it for future readers but please do pop me a message if you read this book as I'd love to know your thoughts as I'm sure you will know what I mean!! One of the best things about this series too is that although it is predominantly a crime thriller it has sprinkles of humour throughout which lightens it up from time to time and Shane does it well. I was shocked when I did discover who was behind the kidnapping as I had genuinely believed it was others entirely so well done Shane on shocking me, not an easy feat considering how many crime books I have read. I was intrigued about the Balor along with Mucklagh Bothy and Tory Island and enjoyed doing my own research on them along with reading the fantastic information Shane adds in the acknowledgements and comments so when you read this book make sure you don't miss out on that section. I really couldn't recommend this book and this series more and I would absolutely love to see this made into a TV series!!

The fact that Shane has obviously either done some research or knows alot about mythology and Ireland (the fact that he lives there probably helps) shines through and I was intrigued by all the mythology, folklore and history in the storyline. I actually ended up reading more about the Balor which was quite interesting. I also enjoyed learning some of the Irish sayings scattered through. This book is an explosive addition to an absolutely addictive series and I cannot wait to get my hands on the next in the series.

It is set over multiple time lines. When books show what has happened in the past and what is happening in the present I find it really helps the reader (if it is well done) understand why things are happening and what has lead to the present activities and decisions. It also shows the bigger picture.

Although this is the third book in the series I had absolutely no problems reading it without the others. Any details or events that have previously happened are mentioned in just the right amount of detail to let a new reader know what has happened and yet not too much to bore a previous reader.

Clear your schedules before even turning a page in this book as it is utterly addictive and you will not be able to put it down!!

I absolutely loved meeting all the characters for this series again and I am completely invested in each of them. Jessie, Seamus and Terri worked as a perfect team and I loved the team dynamics. Each of the main characters were strong, realistic and their own unique personalities and they came together perfectly as a team and as friends. I absolutely love Jessie and Dawn's kick a## take no cr## attitude and although Terri gives the impression of a timid mouse she has definitely got a surprise roar and bite to her. I love seeing how she has come along since the first book and getting stronger and stronger. I really enjoyed seeing much more of her in this book and seeing her work solo and how she coped it certain situations. I love seeing strong women leads in books being female myself and you can't get much stronger than these three!!! Jessie is absolutely ruthless and I just loved her attitude. Although Dawn is the commissioner she is down to Earth and friendly and cares about her team. I really enjoyed watching Jessie and Seamus friendship grow and develop and I'm looking forward to watching them together and seeing what happens. They clicked together really well and although Seamus calls Terri his sister in the book the three actually seem to have the family feel about them with Jessie and Seamus being Terri's Mum and Dad who are protective of her. I haven't read a book with such fantastic team dynamics in a long time. In terms of personalities and these three have become like friends to me who I thoroughly look forward to meeting again and spending time with them. Jessie seems to be quite serious but can relax and have fun. Seamus is definitely the class clown and brought alot of humour to any situation. However, after what happened at the end of this book I am worried that some of his happiness and humour is going to take a nose dive and I can't really blame him. My heart completely went out to him at the twist of events and I'm intrigued to see how he will cope. Seamus and Jessie both make fantastic partners and have that rare ability to speak without words and they know what each other mean but also so does the reader. Terri is the wild card and I'm looking forward to watching her come out of her shell even more. Seamus is cute and I think his relationship with his mum Katie is lovely and Katie is another character I really like and am looking forward to meeting again as I missed her in this book. I am looking forward to seeing this great gang again soon.

Congratulations Shane, a man of many talents, on yet another absolutely fantastic explosive addition to a very addictive series. This is why you are my favourite male author!! Here is to yet another success 🍻!!!

Another brilliant addition to the series. When I finished reading, Lost Graves, I said in my review, that I could not wait for the next book in the series to come out. The dynamic trio of Boyle, Keneally, and Kehoe are back -woohoo!!!! This series is excellent!


In this book, Rosie Blake, a child with cancer was taken from her hospital room. She depends upon her cancer treatments/Chemo and doctors to keep her alive. Her parent's although distraught, are often a little off. They are worried and yet they are giving off a vibe. Dad doesn't want his computers looked at, has an attitude, is demanding yet not too cooperative.

This book also has a vibe of the supernatural kind. Which I dig! Throw in some cult with human sacrifice vibes, some grabs for power and you have yourself a winner! Oh wait! There is more, fans of this series know Uruz is back! Those who have not read the previous two books in this series, get reading. Seriously, I said it before and I will say it again, this is an excellent series.

I love the team and their banter. I love the tension and how it flows throughout this book. A little girl with cancer, in need of her medications immediately grabbed my attention and my heart. Without her treatment she doesn't have much time. Heart beating, emotions on high and fear for a child's well being kept me grabbing my kindle. The settings in this book also set the stage and create atmosphere while intensifying the spooky vibe in this book.

Hold onto your hats as this book has a lot going on, but things come together in a brilliant fashion.
Book #4, I hope you come out soon!

Well written, well thought out, evoking emotion and tense! Highly recommend!

Five Stars!
I feel like a broken record talking about these books -- I can't recommend the Boyle/Keneally series and SA Dunphy enough. I was an instant fan after reading the first book, and they just keep getting better. The fast paced mysteries, excellent characters, supernatural elements, Irish history and folklore all combine flawlessly into intense stories that are truly "unputdownable". I love the team and their rapport, especially between Jessie and Seamus.

Her Child's Cry is third in the Boyle/Keneally series, and while I would recommend reading Bring Her Home and Lost Graves first (for the backstory and because they are just SO GOOD), you should be fine if you are reading this as your introduction to the series. As with all the Boyle/Keneally books, Her Child's Cry ventures into some dark and disturbing territory, this time pagan cults, kidnapping terminally ill children, organized crime, and of course, murder -- all with plenty of twists and turns keeping you guessing until the final chapter. And as always, the enigmatic Uruz is watching everything and apparently feeling strangely helpful this time around. I'm looking forward to the next installment with bated breath.

I am extremely grateful to SA Dunphy, Bookouture, and NetGalley for the opportunity to read, review, and be a part of the book tour for Her Child's Cry.

Bring Her Home and Lost Graves the first 2 books in the Boyle & Keneally series had me absolutely gripped. After Lost Graves, the second in the series, left me with quite a surreal yet realistic nightmare of course I was going to jump at the chance of being on the book tour for Her Child's Cry when the lovely Sarah from Bookouture offered me a place!

In Her Child's Cry we return to the madness and mayhem alongside Jessie, Seamus, Terri and Dawn when Rosie, aged 9, who is undergoing chemotherapy treatment, is kidnapped from her hospital bed. Immediately, we're thrown into chaos and turmoil trying to understand why someone would take a sick child from her seemingly loving parents.

What follows is a whirlwind of twists and turns which will keep you guessing and completely on edge until the very last page. As with his other two books in the series, Dunphy has masterfully woven the classic police procedural with the haunting world of Irish folklore and the supernatural. The fact that many of the locations are actual notorious places within Ireland adds an extra layer of trepidation and a disturbing sense of reality. There are many moments within the book where a creeping sense of unease and darkness can be felt crawling from the pages.

Shane has an amazing ability to write characters that you cannot resist connecting with, whether they be good or bad you immediately become invested. Yet again he's blown it out of the park with Her Child's Cry and there is a full range of emotions to be had. His capacity to make characters more than your stereotypical one-dimensional good or bad guy means you're sometimes feeling empathetic for the offenders and questioning the actions and behaviours of those who are meant to protect. This clever balance leaves the reader clinging to the pages trying to decipher who exactly it is that they can trust. Right and wrong may not always be so clear cut.

Another dark, emotional, spine tingling rollercoaster of a book from Shane Dunphy which will be sure to keep you up until the wee hours. I for one cannot wait for more of Uruz, dangerous master manipulator or force for good?

Boyle and Keneally's courage and their detecting and investigative skills are called upon to find a seriously ill child abducted from her hospital bed, putting her life in imminent danger. The child's parents seem to be hiding something, and menacing darkness surrounds their investigations. The theme of evil folklore permeates this story, and the reader is never quite sure what is real.

I like the intensity and the story's suspenseful nature; with its clever plotting and the believable team dynamic, it's an addictive read. The Irish setting, interwoven folklore, and relatable characters make this disturbing and intriguing to read. The ending is impactful and paves the way for the next instalment in this excellent series.

I received a copy of this book from the publisher.

Her Child’s Cry by S.A. Dunphy
(Boyle & Keneally #3)

Team Boyle, Keneally, and Kehoe are at it again, with a healthy dose of Ireland's Garda Commissioner Wilson adding her usual superhero moves to the mix. I think of this series as it's own little world because you do have to take things with a grain of salt. The team seems to think nothing of one of them running into danger alone (the others will actually gripe about it when it happens even though they have done it themselves) and then the others are able to whip out amazing rescues of one kind or another.

In this story a little girl, who has cancer and is only still alive because of her chemo treatments, has been kidnapped. Her wealthy parents don't seem to be too interested in helping investigators get their little girl back. The girl has ten days to live at the most, without her chemo treatments, and that's if whoever took her doesn't kill her first.

It looks like a cult could be involved, one that requires human sacrifices. This series has always had a supernatural, cultish air about it. Once again Uruz, Boyle's nemesis from a past that won't go away, seems to have his bloody fingers in this violent kidnapping crime, maybe? But the investigators will not give up, they are determined to save the little girl, no matter the dangers that they face. As usual, Uruz seems to be ever present and dangerous.

Thank you to Bookouture and NetGalley for this ARC.

This is one of those books that you start and then you are at 40% and you didn't realize time passed as you were lost in the pages.
All the books in this series are very good but this one is off chart as it's enthralling, gripping, with the right level of creepiness and horror.
There's always an element of Irish folklore or history at the core of the story and in this case, it was some historical facts of Dublin history. It was fascinating to read about them and i learned something new.
There's often a sense of dread in this story, an unknown menace and I felt it more in this book than in the other.
This is a series that balances elements of horror and thriller and makes them work very well
The story is fast paced and it must be fast paced as it talks about a race to save a child from her kidnapper.
This is just a part as there's a lot more.
The twists and the solution were unexpected and the author surprised me till the last page.
Now I must read the next story as the last page was a huge surprise.
I strongly recommend this book. it can be read as a standalone but it's better to read the rest of the series.
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine

Another great book in this gripping crime series.
A little girl is snatched from hospital and the hunt is on to find her. She’s fighting cancer and needs to be in hospital so it’s a real race against time for Jessie and the team.
This is a fast paced thriller with a sinister undertone as the people who are hunting Rosie are part of a deranged cult.
There’s lots of strands to this story and just when you think it’s all settled, a shock hits you from the side.
The relationship between Jessie, Seamus, Terri and Dawn is as tight as ever and I love that they know each other so well.
A great read that I’d highly recommend.
Thanks to Bookouture and NetGalley for the opportunity to read this book.
