First US printing. The 6th novel by this exceptionally good writer, one who writes complex and satifsfying mysteries, with very real characters - set in Glasgow, this is the second novel featuring Paddy Meehan, a young Irish girl now working as a reporter. I cannot describe Mina's appeal as a writer better than Michael Connelly did when her said "[Her] work is really quite wonderful. She has an original voice, rough-and-tumble one moment, heart-touching the next. She paints a big picture with the subtleties of true life. It took only one book for me to become a fan." SIGNED on the title page, and dated 18 July 06 (in the month of publication.) 360 pp. Fine in fine dust jacket. .ISBN # 0-316-735949 |
