Critics Review

Shamefully late in the day, I’ve caught up with the acclaimed US novelist Laura Lippman, and what a knock-out she is … This is a real riveting suspense - a humdinger of a book - Daily Mail

An excellent mystery and a thoughtful exploration of the nature and effects of grief and loss - Guardian

Laura Lippman heightens the tension without any savagery or melodrama, while at the same time exploring the nature of family relationships in all their misery and necessity. WHAT THE DEAD KNOW is an impressive and engaging novel - TLS
