the premise: The Name of the Star sounds like a modern Jack the Ripper type thriller. A series of murders breaks out across London and Rory thinks she may even see the suspect but no one else has, not even her friends who were right there. Something tells me this might have a bit of a paranormal element going on too.
why I'm dying to read it: I know the girl can write and I'm curious how her humour translates into a thriller. One reviewer described it as "the sordidness of Criminal Minds and the goofiness of Ghostbusters" which sounds about right!
how long I have to wait: not long at all! The book was actually released last week so I'm hoping it will be in my hands soon.
while you're waiting check out: There are lots of cool murder mysteries that take place in London but why not try the master himself, Sherlock Holmes?
