Description

How far would you go to avenge the one you love

Blum has a secret buried deep in her past.

She thought she'd left the past behind.

But then Mark, the man she loves, dies.

His death looks like a hit-and-run. It isn't a hit-and-run. Mark has been killed by the men he was investigating. And then, suddenly, Blum rediscovers what she's capable of...

Kill Bill meets Dexter via The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, WOMAN OF THE DEAD is a wild ride of a thriller where the first stage of grief is revenge. And revenge is a dish best served bloody.

Reviews

One of the most arresting thrillers I've read for years. Hypnotic! Aichner plumbs the darkest depths of the human psyche in this compelling tale of a female undertaker. As a mother, Blum is touching and relatable. But as a vengeful wife determined to hunt down her husband's killers... Be afraid. Be very, very afraid - Lisa Gardner

An ironclad guarantee of sleepless nights - Independent

Fast, edgy and gripping... full of quirks, with a conflicted heroine as killer at its heart. Do not miss it - Daily Mail

An inventive, forceful, engrossing revenge thriller - The Times
