Description

One of the Telegraph s Best Crime Fiction Books for 2015

An ironclad guarantee of sleepless nights INDEPENDENT

One of the most arresting thrillers I ve read for years LISA GARDNER

Fast, edgy and gripping...full of quirks, with a conflicted heroine as killer at its heart. Do not miss it. GEOFFREY WANSELL, DAILY MAIL

Aichner has a talent for keeping readers hooked - this is a gripping read and the character of Blum lives long in the mind TELEGRAPH

An inventive, forceful, engrossing revenge thriller MARCEL BERLINS, TIMES

Blum is a great character and when Aichner s ghost-train plot ends in the only place it can - a crematorium - you feel like cheering GUARDIAN


How far would you go to avenge the one you love?

Blum has a secret buried deep in her past.

She thought she d left the past behind.

But then Mark, the man she loves, dies.

His death looks like a hit-and-run. It isn t a hit-and-run. Mark has been killed by the men he was investigating.
And then, suddenly, Blum rediscovers what she s capable of...

KILL BILL meets DEXTER via THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO, WOMAN OF THE DEAD is a wild ride of a thriller where the first stage of grief is revenge. And revenge is a dish best served bloody.
