あらすじ・解説
In this shocking thriller from the author of the "blazingly intense" Reese Witherspoon book club pick and national best seller Conviction (A. J. Finn), a woman in crisis finds herself on the hunt for her own mother's murderer.
She thought she was finding her birth mother.
Now she's searching for a killer.
Dr. Margo Dunlop is at a crossroads. Her adoptive mom just passed away, and Margo misses her so much she can't begin to empty the house - or, it seems, get her brother on the phone. Not to mention she's newly single, secretly pregnant, and worried about her best friend's dangerous relationship. In an effort to cheer herself up she goes in search of her birth mother. Instead she finds Nikki, her mother's sister. Aunt Nikki isn't what Margo expects, and she brings upsetting news: Margo's mother is dead. Worse, she was murdered years ago, and her killer is still at large - and sending Nikki threatening letters.
Margo is torn. Should she stay out of this mess, or try to find justice? But then Margo receives a letter, too. Someone out there has been waiting and watching, and in Margo sees the spitting image of her mother....
Darkly funny and deeply affecting, The Less Dead is a sharply modern new thriller from the bestselling author of Conviction, and a surprisingly moving story of daughters and mothers, secrets and choices, and how the search for the truth - and a long-hidden killer - will lead one woman to find herself.
批評家のレビュー
"If you haven't read Denise Mina yet, you should." (Alafair Burke, New York Times best-selling author of The Better Sister)
"Denise Mina brilliantly manages to be funny, heart-wrenching, gut-punching and addictive all at once." (Nicci French, author of the international best seller Day of the Dead)
"The menacing atmosphere ... effectively supports the novel's themes of reconciliation, class divides, and violence against women. Mina is a master of the genre, with wide appeal, especially for those who appreciate character-driven stories with literary weight, like those of Tana French, Karin Slaughter, and Laura Lippman." (Booklist starred review)
