Críticas:

Praise for Requiem Mass

"Compelling...The finale, reminiscent of The Day of the Jackal, ratchets up the suspense and brings new meaning to the word stalking." -"Publishers Weekly", starred review

"These characters are well drawn, especially Fenwick, and even the killer avoids cliche. Boasting a very tense, superb ending, this second in a gritty new series (following "Fatal Legacy", 2001) shows tremendous promise and is sure to appeal to fans of Tana French, Benjamin Black, and Tess Gerritsen." --"Booklist"

"This must surely win an award for first novel. The start is as electrifying as any I have come across and even after that it bowls along at a terrific pace. It promises a great future." --"Coventry Evening Telegraph"

"Gripping...look out for the second in the series." -"Shots Magazine"

"A fine mystery novel in the tradition of Colin Dexter's Inspector Morse mysteries." --"South Wales Argus"

"A really interesting motive powers a forceful novel...atmospheric...deeply layered...clearly written."--"The Poisoned Pen "

"Ingenious, pacy, with well-drawn characters, this is a promising debut."--"Sunday Mercury"

"This disturbing crime thriller grabs you and doesn't let go... Chilling." "-Bookshelf"

Reseña del editor:

The first deaths are just a warm-up...
A Buried Past.
When Deborah Fearnside, a young wife and mother, goes missing, police interest is minimal. She would hardly be the first woman to abandon a tired marriage. Four weeks later it is DCI Andrew Fenwick, back from compassionate leave, who notices the set of coincidences that should have transformed a routine missing person's case into a suspected abduction. But by then it is too late for Debbie.
A Dark Secret.
Twenty years ago, a young woman fell tragically to her death. The only people with her were four schoolfriends. One--or maybe all of them--is responsible. Now there's someone intent on letting them have their just deserts.
A Bloody Revenge.
Fenwick is soon caught in a desperate race against time to find the murderer before he completes his brutal vendetta. As the death toll mounts, Fenwick stares failure in the face--unless he can draw the predator out of the shadows and into an unconventional and highly dangerous trap with the ultimate bait in "Requiem Mass," a chilling mystery from Elizabeth Corley.
