The Bad News Bible by Anna Blundy
Smart, damaged, and able to out-drink any man in the joint, Faith Zanetti is very much a heroine for today. Reviewers have likened her to Bridget Jones, but in fact she’s much tougher and grittier than that.
“This is a keeper; don’t miss it” — Booklist (starred review)
A better comparison: Kay Scarpetta, as she appeared in the early novels of Patricia Cornwell, but leavened with a gloriously cynical, pitch-black sense of humor.
The Edgar-winning first in the Karl Alberg series — a cult favorite among mystery fans, prized for its delicately etched sense of melancholy and intriguing character studies of the cop, his quarry, and the enigmatic librarian who proves an unlikely bridge between the two.
“A writer of exceptional talent…her novels are a joy” –Toronto Globe & Mail
Especially recommended for fans of Scandinavian mysteries with which it shares a sense of chilly introspection.
