'Love is the death of me,' reads the handwritten note. The gunshot victim was found in Detective Sergeant Kathy Mallory's apartment. It is not clear at first if it was homicide or suicide. And Mallory has disappeared...But by a trace of credit card activity, Mallory's faithful partner, Riker, knows that she filled her gas tank in the states of Pennsylvania and Ohio. She is leaving a trail. Eight hundred miles from New York, another corpse has been found - a man, laid out on the tarmac, pointing towards Route 66. Over the years a number of bodies have been discovered along this famous road - all little girls, aged between five and seven. Mallory's mother died when she was only six, and she never knew her father. She was a child of high technology and cold logic, but there is a void within her which could only be filled by recovering her past. "Shark Music" is Carol O'Connell's finest achievement - a thrilling, complex and emotional novel which explores the hopes and despairs of lost parents and lost children. It is a journey that can only end in tears.

Review:
"Carol O'Connell, an excellent writer, has created a heroine who seems capable of committing any crime she is accused of, yet has you rooting for her from the start." (Daily Telegraph)

"A tightly wrapped, expert combination of suspense, mystery and show-stopping character" (New York Times)

"Intelligent, honed and taunting" (New York Daily News)

"O'Connell is a consummate story-teller - a unique talent who deserves to be a household name" (Val McDermid)

"It is seldom that critics make a unanimous judgement. But when O'Connell unleashed New York cop Kathy Mallory on an unsuspecting world in Mallory's Oracle, everyone agreed that there had never been a fictional detective like her ... Mallory grips us like a hand on the throat" (The Times)
From the Publisher:
The final novel in the bestselling Mallory series
