Resumen del Editor

The brand new thriller from the award-winning crimewriter. 'Death is a hollow drum whose beat has measured out my adult life.' So writes Jay Macallan Stewart in her latest volume of memoirs. But nobody has ever asked whether that has been by accident or design. Nobody, that is, until Jay turns her sights on newly-wed and freshly-widowed Magda Newsam. For Magda's mother Corinna is an Oxford don who knows enough of Jay's history to be very afraid indeed...

"Twists and turns and suspense."


"Twists and turns and suspense."
Corinna, an Oxford lecturer looking out for her daughter whose husband was murdered on their wedding day. She is now in a relationship with the woman Corinna is convinced killed her son-in-law, someone she is convinced has also killed before. So she asks one of her previous students, now a somewhat infamous psychiatrist, to find the proof needed to convict her - despite two others already having been convicted. Meanwhile, the woman Corinna suspects already has had a biographical book published and very received and is currently writing a sequel and this book in construction makes up a substantial part of Trick of the Dark.I
Yes, it's a book of twists and more twists, murders and red herrings, with a core group of investigators and suspects. Cleverly constructed, well written with some decent characterization but all are a bit cardboard cut-out for reality: not people to believe in despite their super glossy presentations. And, yes, it isn't overly difficult to guess at the perpetrators.
Narration by Terri Halliger and Juanita McMahan was good, though more variation in tone would have been appreciated.
Not really a book to read if any semblance with reality is a necessity, but probably enjoyable for those who like Agaths Christie who-dun-its? Guess it could be a good holiday read.
