Since Laura Lippman’s debut, she has been recognized as a distinctive voice in mystery fiction and named one of the “essential” crime writers of the last 100 years. Stephen King called her “special, even extraordinary,” and Gillian Flynn wrote, “She is simply a brilliant novelist.” Her books have won most of the major awards in her field and been translated into more than twenty-five languages. She lives in Baltimore and New Orleans with her teenager.
Rezensionen
"I genuinely loved it. Laura's such a good writer - intelligent and literate - and at the same time knows how to write a compelling plot. I would say a page-turner if it wasn't such a cliche...I really hope that this isn't the last we've heard of Mrs. Blossom!"
- Kate Atkinson

"Whenever a new Laura Lippman comes out there is reason to celebrate!" - Louise Penny

"I loved this book. Playful and witty and completely absorbing. More of Mrs. Blossom soon please." - Ann Cleeves, New York Times bestselling author of the Vera Stanhope series

"The closest writer America has to Ruth Rendell...Extraordinary." - Stephen King

"Lippman, long recognized as a master of plot and exposition, has been serving up psychologically rich slices of karma for years. Prom Mom [is] one of her best books yet." - Wall Street Journal on Prom Mom

"I read this acid-dipped beauty in two desperate sittings. Pure James M. Cain noir at its delirious best, it moves so fast and so skillfully, you don't fully grasp what it's really saying (about men, women, desire) until its final stunning pages." - Megan Abbott, New York Times bestselling author of The Turnout, on Prom Mom

"The surprises, delivered close to Prom Mom's final pages, are the kind that might compel you to reread the whole story again, just to find out how Lippman layered this quadrangulate tale with clues and misdirection . . . . and how she managed to make such a classic form feel so of the moment." - Los Angeles Times on Prom Mom

"Laura Lippman is a seasoned pro at crafting mysteries and crime fiction." - Time on Prom Mom

"A writer at the peak of her powers." - Washington Post

"Laura Lippman is one of the best novelists working today, period. Seeing her name on the cover of a book is a guarantee of a highly satisfying reading experience...Laura Lippman is a major writer. If you don't know her, there's 25 books waiting for you." - Chicago Tribune

"Every time Laura Lippman comes out with a new book, I get chills because I know I am back in the hands of the master. She is simply a brilliant novelist." - Gillian Flynn, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Gone Girl

"Lippman is a writing powerhouse." - USA Today

"Her writing is very slick and intelligent noir."
- Paula Hawkins, #1 New York Times bestselling author

"One of the smartest crime writers around." - People

"Laura Lippman delivers it all-suspenseful stories, characters so real . . . genuine emotion. I love her books."
- Harlan Coben
