Critics Review
Praise for Resurrection Kill:
“Resurrection Kill by Laura Joh Rowland is everything I love in a thriller: intriguing and chilling, vivid and memorable, a compelling and deeply personal story about one woman’s search for answers in an era when women were committed to mental hospitals for virtually anything that was outside the cultural norm.

Claire’s courage and fearlessness under increasingly dangerous circumstances made me want to stand up and cheer. I loved this book!”
—Karen Dionne, author of #1 international bestseller The Marsh King’s Daughter and The Wicked Sister
