Synopsis

I beg the young woman to breathe as I desperately try to save her life. I catch a glimpse of her face and it’s like looking in a mirror. We have the same chestnut hair, the same heart-shaped face. She is gripping rose petals, like she had been holding a bouquet. Wake up, please, you could be my sister… My mother disappeared when I was a child, and my father refused ever to speak about her. When I’m called to the scene of a crime and look into victim Ann Hart ’s pretty face, it sends shivers up my spine. I’ve never met her before, but we could be related. Am I investigating the murder of my own little sister? I know I will never rest until I find the person who did this, but it seems that Ann’s killer is not done yet. First someone breaks into my apartment when I am asleep. And then he sends me a bouquet of blood-red roses just like the ones Ann was clutching… I’m leading the case, but am I also the next victim? Just when I think I’ve got a handle on Ann’s killer, he strikes again. I am standing in the freezing morgue as the white sheet is pulled back. It’s Bert Gibbons, my close friend and a local journalist who was investigating Ann’s death. I know it’s a warning: don’t come any closer or you’ll be next. Can I catch this deadly killer or am I just a dead girl walking? Readers are utterly hooked on Dead Girl Walking! “I absolutely devoured this book!… Completely been captivated… I need more.
