Maureen ODonnell wakes up one morning to find her therapist boyfriend murdered in the middle of her living room and herself a prime suspect in a murder case. Desperate to clear her name and to get at the truth, Maureen traces rumors about a similar murder at a local psychiatric hospital, uncovering a trail of deception and repressed scandal that could exonerate her - or make her the next victim. A shattering first novel... You cant look away from it.- New York Times Book Review I cant think of a more interesting - and less likely - crime hero than Maureen ODonnell, the damaged but determined center of Denise Minas marvelous debut mystery. . . . The book bristles with angry energy and the spare urban poetry of its unique language. - Chicago Tribune A groundbreaking book . . . its emotional rawness and visceral honesty pack a punch more potent than any boxer-turned-PI could provide.- Washington Post Book World This raw, powerful story is an exceptional debut. - Kansas City Star A compelling story. . . . This is the reason we read mysteries. - Rocky Mountain News Review This is the book that made me fall in love with Denise Mina. Shes a terrific social commentator and does all the things good crime fiction should always do: talk about characters and how their lives are changed for the better or worse by acts of violence.
