"Maeve Kerrigan is] a fascinating and plausible character...What
she has is persistence, integrity and emotional intelligence, and a
very deft way of insinuating herself into a reader's
affections."--"The Irish Independent" (UK)
Vast wealth offers London defense attorney Philip Kennford a lot of
things: a gorgeous house with a pool in the backyard, connections
in the top echelons of society, a wardrobe worthy of Milan runways.
But his money doesn't provide a happy marriage, or good
relationships with his twin daughters...and it does nothing to
protect his family when someone brutally murders his wife and
daughter in their own home.
When Detective Constable Maeve Kerrigan arrives at the scene, the
two survivors--Philip and his second favorite daughter, Lydia--both
claim to have seen nothing, but it's clear right away that this is
an unhappy family accustomed to keeping secrets. Maeve soon finds
herself entangled in a case with a thousand leads that all seem to
point nowhere, and it doesn't help that her boss, whom she trusts
more than almost anyone, is starting to make decisions that Maeve
finds questionable at best.
In "The Last Girl," Jane Casey once again demonstrates her
ability to write vivid, three-dimensional characters and spin a
gripping, unpredictable mystery.
