The latest Maeve Kerrigan crime thriller
Klappentext zu „The Last Girl “
The teenage girl was the first victim.Her throat cut to the bone, she didn't stand a chance.
Her mother was the second.
She, at least, had time to fight back. Briefly.
Called to the South London crime scene, Maeve Kerrigan's first thought is that this is a domestic dispute gone bad. But the husband - found bloody and unconscious in an upstairs room - insists he's the third victim not the killer. However, the only witness is his young daughter. And she's not talking...

Rezension zu „The Last Girl “
"The Last Girl has a searing opening ... Casey handles several plot lines with ease, and she's come up with an attractive series character in DC Maeve Kerrigan." Sunday Times "This is a lively, gritty thriller. Every scene is well timed. The characters are quickly, expertly drawn. You will turn the pages fast, looking for every clue. I hadn't read Jane Casey before but I will read her again." -- William Leith Evening Standard "A truly modern detective tale" Stylist Magazine "Reminiscent of Lynda La Plante's Jane Tennison ... there is something quietly and enjoyably subversive about the character of Maeve Kerrigan. She is no superwoman, she lacks supernatural acuity, and she doesn't even have so much as a single dragon tattoo. What she has is persistence, integrity and emotional intelligence, and a very deft way of insinuating herself into a reader's affections. The Last Girl won't be the last you'll be hearing of her." Irish Independent "Thoroughly recommended!" eurocrime.co.uk
