"A masterful whodunnit!" - Number 1 NY Times bestselling author Lisa Gardner The envelopes are addressed to simply "Katja" above the name of a Cambridge college, but no one by that name attends or works there. The early letters are desperate; the later ones are angry. No one knows who the messages are meant for, until a seemingly accidental death involves the police, who are already overwhelmed by an unidentified body in the fens. Detective Inspector Chloe Frohmann struggles against DCI Morris Keene's theory of their case even as she's forced to confront evidence that he may be right, and lives hang in the balance. "Winslow is brilliant at portraying the ragged fragments of these lives. What emerges isn't a single killer with motive and means, but a tangle of stories crossing and colliding, stray intersections of incidents and accidents, misunderstandings and misreadings, all thanks to the myopia of individual perspectives and the self-centeredness of individual desires." -The Washington Post "The Start of Everything has the artistry of literature, the grittiness of a best-selling crime thriller, the complexity of an academic puzzle and characters you will not easily forget." - Booklover Book Reviews "Dazzling in its ingenuity and gripping in its suspense." - Shelf Awareness

Autorenporträt
Emily Winslow is the author of a Cambridge-set series of crime novels (The Whole World, The Start of Everything, The Red House, Look for Her), the memoir Jane Doe January, and a writing book called Time to Write. Her books have been published by Random House, HarperCollins, Allison & Busby, and Shanghai Translation Publishing House, and have been called "brilliant" (The Washington Post), "vivid" (Parade magazine) and "dazzling" (Shelf Awareness)."Emily Winslow is a precise and expert analyst of the darkest parts of the human psyche." -internationally bestselling author Sophie Hannah"For Winslow, the story is central. Everyone has a part to play, every voice counts, every viewpoint is important, and no one person is the star. Winslow uses this literary device to convey the unreliability of memory, the potential incoherence of differing points of view and the challenging process of piecing together the disparate pieces of a puzzle. She's a sophisticated storyteller with compelling and unsettling books." -Rosalind Esche for Dear Readerwww.emilywinslow.com
