Review
"Smashing . . . sizzles with suspense."
- Publishers Weekly (starred review) on Breaking Faith
"Razor-sharp...swerves quickly into the helter-skelter, vaguely surreal thriller world of, say, Reggie Nadelson, with a touch of Michael Dibdin at his darkest. Wherever the charismatic Zanetti winds up, she bears watching."
- Booklist

- Providence Journal
“A drop of the hard stuff, administered tenderly by someone who's obviously been there.”
- Christopher Hitchens
“Complex, tense, and fast-moving . . . Blundy's characters are fully fleshed, flawed, and thoroughly human. A fine mystery with an interesting and engaging female lead and a strong sense of place.”

Product Description
“Everyone's favorite messed-up war correspondent”(Sarah Weinman) returns in Anna Blundy's exhilarating sequel to the critically acclaimed Vodka Neat
Faith Zanetti doesn't much care who put the bomb on flight TAA67, the plane that blew up over the tiny Scottish village of Cairbridge twenty-five years ago. Wasn't it those Libyan blokes who went to prison? For a woman whose comfort zone is a war zone, it seems like the boring assignment from hell.
But as the conspiracy theories start seeming less theoretical, Faith realizes she's skating on thin ice. With the ghost of her dead father creeping out of her dreams, and the screams of the doomed passengers ringing in her ears, Faith begins to suspect that the truth she seeks might be closer to home than she thought...
