Dont Look Back by Laura Lippman

Eliza Benedicts past returns to haunt her when the serial killer she escaped from as a young girl walks back into her life. The new nail-shredding novel from New York Times bestseller, Laura Lippman.

‘Lippman is at the height of her powers here, smoothly alternating between the horrors of Eliza's 15th summer and her present, excruciating, dilemma–does she respond, hoping to quiet Walter and preserve her hard-won privacy, or ignore him and risk his wrath? Sensitively examining capital punishment from every side, Lippman delivers an emotionally complex drama that cements her reputation as one of the smartest crime writers around’ People Magazine

“a marvellously crafted novel full of excellent human insights, perfectly explained in a delicious prose. The characters of both young Elizabeth and her older self Eliza had such realism and believability I wanted to reach into the pages and give them a hug to reassure them that everything was going to be alright.” Crimesquad.com
