The Keeper by Tana French
More from the fictional Irish town of Ardnakelty. Cal Hooper has to stop the local Big Shot from basically stealing everyone's farms for a giant new data center. This comes about because of the death of a local girl under mysterious circumstances.
The books are starting to feel the same. All the same grudges percolating away. A certain meanness of spirit and underhanded dealing I'm not used to from Irish people. I do revel in hearing the slang and the dialect of the people but a lot of times the characterizations seem a bit off. And for these books, it's about the characters interacting rather than dealing with the mystery.

As a matter of fact, my anger does keep me warm
