The dead sit round in a ring

Jimmy Stone died of a broken heart. Literally. "A really interesting set of main characters, taut plotting, fine writing, and some engrossing subplots make this a highly satisfying read and a series to keep an eye on."--Morning Star (U.K.) "Four people sitting in a ring. Two men and two women. All of them dead." Thus begins a case that will take detective Stella Mooney from the fabulous flats of Notting Hill to the decidedly tougher side of town.

  • ">Der stärkste Krimi-Newcomer seit Nicci French.< The Bookseller Als Detective Stella Mooney den Tatort ihres neuen Falles erreicht, bietet sich ihr ein erschreckendes Bild: Vier Menschen sitzen im Kreis, zwei Frauen und zwei Männer, alle vier sind tot. Drei der Toten, so wird sich später herausstellen, starben durch eigene Hand, der vierte jedoch wurde ermordet. Es handelt sich um Jimmy Stone, der seinen Lebensunterhalt auf denkbar makabre Weise verdiente: Er verkaufte Erinnerungsstücke an besonders blutige Verbrechen kein angenehmer Zeitgenosse, doch wer hatte Grund, ihn zu ermorden?"
  • "Detective Stella Mooney has a vicious little vodka habit and a badly shredding love-life, but mostly what she had is a case that's driving her crazy, about four cult-members who committed ritual suicide and the thug who seems to have ... come along for the ride? The plot's a cracker, but the secret pleasure here is Stella -- messy, conflicted, angry, aging, and extraordinarily interesting."
