'A fantastic story with great twists and surprises.' 5* reader review

'One of the best crime novelists writing today.' TESS GERRITSEN

A TESS MONAGHAN MYSTERY

Tess Monaghan's life is back on course. She's beginning to make a name for herself as a PI, she's even banking good money. Then her father asks her a favour: to investigate the prison death of a friend's brother - the confessed killer of a Jane Doe.

It's not until the shocking discovery of the Jane Doe's true identity turns deadly that Tess realises that her life may have taken a very wrong turn indeed - one from which there is no going back. . .

'A moving feast of a book' Washington Post

PRAISE FOR THE TESS MONAGHAN SERIES

'Tess is a heroine with a nose for what she is not being told, and she is never content with half the story. These Baltimore novels are effective thrillers, because they are stories about wanting to know what happens next.' Times Literary Supplement

'Whip smart female protagonist, gritty Baltimore setting. Loved Tess!' 5* reader review

'Readers won't be able to resist Tess, who, like one of Baltimore's famous crabs, sports a tough shell that hides a sweet centre.' BOOKLIST

'Digestible, fun, tense' NPR

'In this series, Lippman has developed sturdy tales, wry humour, and snappy dialogue wrapped around an insider's view of Baltimore.' SUN-SENTINEL

'Tess, is a ballsy, free-spirited woman who thinks on her feet and has a commanding physical presence. . . Highly recommend' 5* reader review

'What fun! I discovered a new (to me) mystery series. Tess Monaghan is a terrific main character.' 5* reader review

'I really have fallen in love with Tess Monaghan. These mystery novels well deserve the awards Lippman has won.' 5* reader review
