Onda Flickor
av Alex Marwood
»En fantastisk kriminalroman. Ett av de mest oväntade och dramatiska slut jag stött på i en kriminalroman på mycket länge.« | Gunilla Wedding, Skånska Dagbladet

»Onda flickor är fullkomligt uppslukande. Psykologiskt rik, komplex och med en mästerlig intrig. Jag kunde inte lägga den ifrån mig.« | Jojo Moyes

Sommaren 1986 dömdes två unga flickor till fängelse för mord.
Tjugofem år senare rapporterar journalisten Kirsty Lindsay om en rad mycket obehagliga attacker på unga kvinnor. Hennes efterforskningar leder henne till städaren Amber Gordon.
Så träffas Kirsty och Amber på nytt, för första gången sedan den där svarta dagen då de var barn. De blir snabbt medvetna om den stora fara de befinner sig i. Och med nya identiteter och familjer att skydda är de beredda att göra vad som helst för att bevara sin hemlighet.

ALEX MARWOOD är en pseudonym för den brittiska journalisten och författaren Serena Mackesy, krönikör i The Independent. Onda flickor är hennes första kriminalroman och den första bok hon skrivit under namnet Alex Marwood.

»Onda flickor är en mångbottnad kriminalroman av hög klass. Den är gediget välskriven och skulle kunna bli en utmärkt miniserie för tv - utan att manusförfattarna behöver göra särskilt många ändringar vare sig i dramaturgin eller dialogerna.« | TORBJÖRN ELENSKY, TIDNINGEN VI

»Genuint skrämmande och känslomässigt omtumlande... oemotståndlig.« | VAL MCDERMID

»Den här otroliga historien kommer att sätta sig i huvudet på dig. Två veckor efter att jag läst Onda flickor kan jag fortfarande inte sluta tänka på den. Årets bok.« | THE SUN

Granne med döden
av Alex Marwood
»Ännu bättre än Onda flickor. Djävulskt otäck!« | STEPHEN KING

»Känsliga läsare varnas! Men klarar man av att läsa klart så är det här en förvånansvärt charmig kriminalroman.« | LOTTA OLSSON, DN

Det gamla huset på Beulah Grove i södra London ruvar på många hemligheter. Hyresgästerna i de förfallna lägenheterna har alla mycket att dölja, för omvärlden och för varandra.
När Collette flyttar in lär hon snart känna Cher, en femtonårig tjej som i likhet med henne själv befinner sig på flykt. Båda har svårt att begripa sig på den tafatt vänlige Thomas i lägenheten högst upp, och Collette dras i stället till Hossein, som flytt från Iran och nu väntar på besked angående sin asylansökan. Enstöringen Gerard Bright i lägenheten bredvid håller å sin sida på att driva henne till vansinne med sin klassiska musik. Längst ner bor den sextionioåriga Vesta, som levt i huset hela sitt liv och håller ett vakande öga på de andra.
En ödesdiger sommarnatt inträffar något som tvingar dem att ingå en ostadig allians. De måste nu samarbeta för att bevara den hemlighet som knyter dem samman. Men det är bara en av dem som vet vad det egentligen är som gör att avloppsrören i huset håller på att täppas igen

ALEX MARWOOD är en pseudonym för den brittiska journalisten och författaren Serena Mackesy, krönikör i The Independent. Hon slog igenom stort med sin första, kritikerrosade deckare, Onda flickor, som också var den första bok hon skrev under namnet Alex Marwood. Granne med döden [The Killer Next Door] är hennes andra kriminalroman.

»Alex Marwood har åstadkommit en märklig blandning av komedi, burlesk, tragedi, splatter och drama. Guy Ritchie eller Jean-Pierre Jeunet skulle kunna sno den rakt av och göra film (tänk Snatch med mer än ett stänk av Delikatessen). Äckelmagade varnas, alltså. Men sitt för all del inte för långt från näsdukarna heller.« | JENNY RYDQVIST, SYDSVENSKAN

Om Onda flickor:

Vinnare av en Edgar Award för Bästa nya deckare i pocket 2014!

Darkest Secret
av Alex Marwood
“If there has been a better mystery-suspense story written in this decade, I can’t think of it . . . transcend[s] the genre.” —Stephen King“A cruel and cunning mystery . . . Plot-twisting, mind-altering and monstrously funny.” —The New York Times Book ReviewThe latest gripping psychological thriller from Edgar Award winner Alex MarwoodWhen a child goes missing at an opulent house party, it makes international news. But what really happened behind those closed doors? Twelve years ago, Mila Jackson’s three-year-old half-sister Coco disappeared during their father’s fiftieth birthday celebration, leaving behind her identical twin Ruby as the only witness. The girls’ father, Sean, was wealthy and influential, as were the friends gathered at their seaside vacation home for the weekend’s debauchery. The case ignited a media frenzy and forever changed the lives of everyone involved. Now, Sean Jackson is dead, and the people who were present that terrible night must gather once more for a funeral that will reveal that the secrets of the past can never stay hidden. Perfectly paced all the way through its devastating conclusion, The Darkest Secret is one that fans of Gillian Flynn and Liane Moriarty won’t be able to put down.
