Description
If you enjoyed UNORTHODOX, you will be riveted by Rebekah Roberts . . .
'An absolutely crackling, unputdownable mystery. I loved it.' GILLIAN FLYNN
Fresh out of journalism school, Rebekah Roberts is working for the New York Tribune, trying to make a name for herself. Assigned a story about the murder of a woman in Brooklyn, Rebekah finds a case from inside a closed, secretive Hasidic Jewish community - the same Brooklyn neighbourhood her estranged mother was brought up in.
Shocked to discover that the victim is set to be buried without an autopsy, Rebekah knows there is a story to uncover, but getting to the truth won't be easy - in the cloistered world her mother rebelled against, it's clear she's not welcome, and everyone she meets has a secret to keep, most of all from an outsider.
Perfect for fans of Megan Abbott, Gillian Flynn and Laura Lippman, Dahl's first novel brilliantly explores the secret world of one of New York's most secluded communities
