* Sunday Times *
This is a lively, gritty thriller. Every scene is well timed. The characters are quickly, expertly drawn. You will turn the pages fast, looking for every clue. I hadn't read Jane Casey before but I will read her again. -- William Leith * Evening Standard *
A truly modern detective tale * Stylist Magazine *
Reminiscent of Lynda La Plante's Jane Tennison . . . there is something quietly and enjoyably subversive about the character of Maeve Kerrigan. She is no superwoman, she lacks supernatural acuity, and she doesn't even have so much as a single dragon tattoo. What she has is persistence, integrity and emotional intelligence, and a very deft way of insinuating herself into a reader's affections.
The Last Girl won't be the last you'll be hearing of her. * Irish Independent *
