She's not getting any younger, of course. But she has all the police records at her fingertips - and as much information about who hates who as anyone in their small town. Plus, she's used to being under-estimated. And you should never under-estimate a middle-aged woman with justice in her sights . . .In this follow-up to his award-winning crime novel Paper Cage, Tom Baragwanath delivers another bone-deep exploration of life in the margins of small-town New Zealand.Praise for Paper Cage'A protagonist who is impossible not to root for . . . breathtakingly compelling' Daily Mail'An astonishing debut with a wonderfully flawed character . . . full of heart and determination' James Oswald, author of All That Lives'A truly crackling mystery' Publishers Weekly
