ABOUT KALA

A gripping literary page-turner from a rising Irish talent in which former
friends, estranged for twenty years, reckon with the terrifying events of the
summer that changed their lives.

In the seaside village of Kinlough, on Ireland’s west coast, three old friends
meet for the first time in years. They—Helen, Joe and Mush—were part of an
original group of six inseparable teenagers in the summer of 2003, with
motherless, reckless Kala Lanann at its white-hot center. But later that year,
Kala disappeared without a trace. Now remains have been discovered in the
woods—including a skull with a Polaroid photo tucked inside—and the town is both
aghast and titillated at reopening this old wound.


On the eve of this gruesome discovery, Helen had reluctantly returned for her
father’s wedding, the world-famous musician Joe had come home to dry out and
reconnect with something authentic, and Mush had never left, too shattered by
the events of that summer to venture beyond the counter of his mother’s café.
But when two more girls go missing, they are forced to confront their own
complicity in the events that led to Kala’s disappearance. Ultimately, they must
do what others should have done before to stop the violent patterns of their
town’s past repeating themselves once again.

In cracklingly vivid prose, Kala brilliantly examines the sometimes brutal costs
of belonging, as well as the battle in the human heart between vengeance and
forgiveness, despair and redemption.

ABOUT KALA

A MOST ANTICIPATED BOOK OF THE YEAR • A gripping literary page-turner from a
rising Irish talent in which former friends, estranged for twenty years, reckon
with the terrifying events of the summer that changed their lives.

“[A] gritty heartbreaker of a thriller…a spectacular read for Donna Tartt and
Tana French fans.”—Kirkus


“A master class in building suspense…Walsh manages a deft balance between
adolescent angst and ecstasy — discoveries bringing horror, sorrow and joy — and
the more deliberate, often elegiac reflections of adulthood, reckoning with the
promises of the past.”—The Washington Post


In the seaside town of Kinlough, on Ireland’s west coast, three old friends are
thrown together for the first time in years. They—Helen, Joe, and Mush—were part
of an original group of six inseparable teenagers in the summer of 2003, with
motherless, reckless Kala Lanann as their group’s white-hot center. Soon after
that summer’s peak, Kala disappeared without a trace.

Now it’s fifteen years later: Helen has reluctantly returned to Ireland for her
father’s wedding; Joe is a world-famous musician, newly back in town; and Mush
has never left, too scared to venture beyond the counter of his mother’s café.

But human remains have been discovered in the woods. Two more girls have gone
missing. And as past and present begin to collide, the estranged friends are
forced to confront their own complicity in the events that led to Kala’s
disappearance.

Against the backdrop of a town suffocating on its own secrets, in a story that
builds from a smolder to a stunning climax, Kala brilliantly examines the
sometimes brutal costs of belonging, as well as the battle in the human heart
between vengeance and forgiveness, despair and redemption.

PRAISE

A MOST ANTICIPATED BOOK OF THE YEAR BY ELECTRIC LITERATURE

“[A] gritty heartbreaker of a thriller…Part heartfelt coming-of-age tale, part
brutal Irish noir, this is a spectacular read for Donna Tartt and Tana French
fans.”
—Kirkus, starred review

“A master class in building suspense…Walsh manages a deft balance between
adolescent angst and ecstasy — discoveries bringing horror, sorrow and joy — and
the more deliberate, often elegiac reflections of adulthood, reckoning with the
promises of the past.”
—The Washington Post
 
“Kala hits its mark: it’s a beautiful and taut work of prose.”
—Electric Literature

“This is a masterful reworking of the whodunnit, one you’ll have immense
difficulty putting down…especially enjoyable to read.”
–The Irish Times
 
“Now here’s a truly ambitious debut novel that purrs with narrative confidence –
hugely engaging and thoroughly addictive.”
—Kevin Barry, author of Night Boat to Tangier

“Kala is a thriller—and a lot more. It is exciting and cleverly structured, but
its great strength is the characters: they are terrific.”
—Roddy Doyle, Booker Prize-winning author of Life Without Children

“Colin Walsh’s debut novel is, quite simply, amazing. It’s dark, thoughtful,
gritty and full of suspense. Calling it a page-turner doesn’t even begin to
describe it. Compelling and addictive might be more like it. Beware, though.
KALA contains some rough scenes because it depicts real life, which means
including the dirty sides. Frankly, for me, this is the best book of 2023.”
—The Book Reporter Network

“Colin Walsh’s debut Kala is a heartbreaking story of love and lost youth that
is at once tender and absolutely gutting. Psychologically rangy and ultimately
riveting, Kala is a book you’ll not just read and love, but lend to those you
love.” 
—Smith Henderson, author of Fourth of July Creek

“A debut novel of skill and fire, Kala crackles with passion as it depicts the
urgent bonds of youth and the monsters that emerge when we peer into the past.”
—Rob Doyle, author of Threshold

“I was kept awake until the birds were singing. What a story. I was riveted. It
captures so much of the essence of the thrill and excitement of teenage summers,
the wonderful optimism of youth and first loves, and the ease with which
corruption and evil can take hold and thrive. This is a dazzling novel.”
—Donal Ryan, author of The Queen of Dirt Island

“The very definition of page-turner, full of big personalities, rapid twists and
unpredictable moments, cast both in vivid colour and deepest shadow. I tore
through it.”
—Lisa McInerney, author of The Rules of Revelation
 
“A sizzling debut of nostalgia and secrets… Comparisons to Donna Tartt’s Secret
History are justified. Kala is both a genuine page-turner and a profound
meditation on memory and how it shapes our lives – how our past selves forever
haunt the people we become.” 
—The Guardian

“Compelling… Kala is an addictive read, with a pacy denouement – and explosive
revelation – that’s more than worth the wait.”
—The Daily Telegraph

“A vividly spun web of a novel… Walsh’s pin-balling language seems to contain
within it both the volatile ecstasy of being young, and the precipitous darkness
that often accompanies it. A compulsive joy.”
—The Daily Mail

“Impressive… Kala heralds an exciting new voice.”
—The Observer
 
“The characters unfold beautifully on the page as the plot builds to breakneck
speed. A mesmerising debut thriller wrapped in lyrical writing.” 
―Woman & Home, Book of the Month

“This shimmering novel teems with tension and is so brilliantly executed it’s
hard to believe it’s a debut.” 
―The Bookseller, Editor’s Choice
