August 2011 Book of the Month.
A Maxim Jakubowski Great Female Crime Sleuth.
DC MAEVE KERRIGAN - Maeve is an ambitious but initially experienced detective constable keen to make her mark on the murder task force and has appeared in three impressive psychological thrillers so far. The plots she has to unravel are impeccably weaved and unfold dexterously while maintaining a strong sense of place and a compulsive, menacing atmosphere.
Driven by a strong sense of justice, she is a character younger female readers will find easy to identify with. Definitely one for the future.
