'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, an unflinching chronicler of life in America right now, and Sunburn is her dark, gleaming noir gem. Read it.' (Gillian Flynn)
A joy to read ... a classic noir transplanted to the 1990s with a beguiling femme fatale at the centre of the action. (Bookseller, Editor's Choice)
You can tell how much fun the author had updating the classic noir tropes, and it's contagious. Plotty, page-turning pleasure. (Kirkus (starred review))
'Just try to read this slowly ... Modern noir at its best, it will delight old-movie lovers, satisfy suspense readers, and reward Lippman's legion of fans.' (Library Journal (starred review))
Another extraordinary novel from Laura Lippman - full of just-one-more chapter, stay-up-late suspense, but packed too with nuance, subtlety, observation and humanity. Lippman is a natural storyteller at the height of her powers. (Lee Child)
'Laura Lippman's Sunburn grips like the classic Hollywood black-and-white movie thrillers of the 1930s and 1940s...Profoundly atmospheric , Sunburn unsettles from its first page.' (Marcel Berlins The Times)
'Note-perfect noir ... not to be missed.' (Megan Abbott)
In "Sunburn," a mysterious redhead leaves her husband and child, adopts a new identity and moves to a small town in Delaware. She is soon ensnared in an affair with a secretive stranger she meets in a local tavern. Her true nature-criminal with a shady past or damsel in distress-is uncertain. "I feel like it creates a whole new category, which I'm thinking of as 'femme noir,'" says Ms. Haber. "Laura's done something very feminist, very revolutionary. She's taken this traditional noir structure of a man sweeping in to save a woman who then turns around and eats his heart out-she's turned that notion on its head. (Leigh Haber, O, The Oprah Magazine books editor and book scout for Oprah’s Book Club)
Laura Lippman's homage to the hardboiled, morally ambiguous novels of James M Cain, has the texture and many of the tropes of classic American noir... Lippman uses multiple narrators and controls the flow of information masterfully in this tantalising, ingeniously constructed page-turner. (Laura Wilson Guardian)
Lippman has created the perfect page-turner; gripping from start to finish, brimming with lies, forbidden desires, cold-blooded murder, blackmail and betrayal, and with not a word out of place, Sunburn is not just one of the year's most anticipated novels, it could well turn out to be one of its best. (Pam Norfolk Lancashire Evening Post)
'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, an unflinching chronicler of life in America right now, and Sunburn is her dark, gleaming noir gem. Read it.' Gillian Flynn 'Extraordinary . . . full of just-one-more chapter, stay-up-late suspense, but packed too with nuance, subtlety, observation and humanity.' Lee Child 'Note-perfect noir ... not to be missed.' Megan Abbott What kind of woman walks out on her family? Gregg knows. The kind of woman he picked up in a bar three years ago precisely because she had that kind of wildcat energy. And now she's vanished - at least from the life that he and his kid will live. We'll follow her, to a new town, a new job, and a new friend, who thinks he has her figured. So who is this woman who calls herself Polly? How many times has she disappeared before? And who are the shadowy figures so interested in her whereabouts? Laura Lippman's brilliant new novel - Anne Tyler's Ladder of Years as if written by James M. Cain - will ensnare you in the life of one of crime fiction's most unforgettable heroines.
