But in Faithful Place we get a better understanding of Frank’s hardscrabble childhood and gain insight into his toughness.įrank is called back to his poor childhood neighborhood of Faithful Place, Dublin - which he has avoided for years. ![]() Here we have the foul-mouthed, manipulative Frank from the second book, The Likeness which focused on Cassie, a female undercover officer.
