书籍简介

Winner of the Shamus Award for Best PI Hardcover novel 2019 'This is the second novel to feature the private investigator Roxane Weary, who's a wonderful character. Lepionka is such an assured writer, with complete narrative authority from the first line.' Sophie HannahShaken by the outcome of her last big case, PI Roxane Weary is keeping a low profile. When she takes on a new client who suspects his fiancee is cheating on him, Roxane is happy to have landed a run-of-the-mill surveillance job.

Until, that is, Marin Strasser, the woman she's been tailing, turns up dead. The police are convinced her client is the one who pulled the trigger. Certain - and scared - that things aren't so straightforward, Roxane starts to follow a paper trail that gets more dangerous the farther it goes.

So who really was Marin Strasser? Who could have wanted her dead? And how can Roxane stop her work from once again pushing away the few people she thinks she can trust？

这部小说是第二部以私家侦探罗克珊·劳厄为主角的小说，她是一个非常棒的角色。Lepionka是这样一个自信的作家，从第一行开始就拥有了完整的叙述权威。最后一桩大案子的结局让人震惊，但派·罗克珊·劳伊一直保持着低调。当她接受了一个新客户，怀疑他的未婚妻欺骗他，罗克珊很高兴得到了一份普通的监视工作。

直到她一直跟踪的那个女人马林·斯特拉瑟被发现死了。警方确信她的当事人就是扣动扳机的人。虽然很害怕，但事情并不是那么简单，罗克珊开始循着纸上的痕迹走得越远越危险。

那么马林·斯特拉瑟到底是谁呢?谁会想要她死呢?罗克珊又要如何阻止自己的工作再次将她认为可以信任的少数人拒之门外呢?
