Über diesen Titel

Something old, something new

Winter brings more than fierce Atlantic storms to the thriving tourist town of Kylebeggan in County Kerry. On a cold January night, a woman is murdered and laid out in her wedding dress on her bed. And then another woman is discovered murdered in her flat, laid out in the same way. Weeks later, taxi driver Ellie Gillespie collects a bride-to-be on her hen night and drops her home. Ellie is horrified when this woman too is later discovered dead in her gown.

Something borrowed

The gardaí, mayor and tourist board are desperate to end the negative publicity of a town that relies on the holiday trade; they cannot afford to have a rumour spread that a serial killer is at large.

Someone...dead

Ellie also has her own suspicions about the killer. She is persuaded to share her thoughts with investigative journalist Cormac Scully; digging into past secrets of the town, can they figure out who it is before the Bride Collector strikes again?

Kritikerstimmen

"Vivid characters, great storytelling and a spine-tingling twist." (Jo Spain)

"Dark, tense and richly atmospheric, the past is never far away in this twisty thriller where nothing is quite as it seems." (Sam Blake)

"MacDonald builds the action to a spectacularly creepy climax, and there is a superbly worked twist to follow that will take your breath away." (Irish Times)

"Creepy, chilling, and a terrific page-turner. Siobhan is right at the top of her game." (Dymphna Nugent)

Am relevantesten  

Pity that the narrator only reads the story instead of understanding it and filling it with life.
I can't say for sure if the story bored me because it's just not interesting or because of how it's told.
Anyway, nobody stands out, nobody has any charme or Charisma or seems clever, the killer is being found out through a connection that is not there. The author is like..."Oh, of course. HERE we have a lead." The showdown is silly.
Conclusion: Save your money for a pint or two, more chance of something worthwhile.
