[Q&A with Zoë Rankin]
At CrimeReads the author tagged five favorite Kiwi and Australian crime writers, including:
Michael Robotham (Australia)Read about another entry on the list.
My favorite of the author’s books: Good Girl, Bad Girl
Robotham is one of my go-to reads when I want a page-turner. His books are addictive and his characters are spot-on.
Good Girl, Bad Girl is the first book in a phenomenal crime series. The two, equally damaged, main characters, Evie and Cyrus,have the most wonderfully dynamic chemistry, and the plot is dark and wickedly addictive. The characters are three-dimensional in every sense of the word, and I cared about Evie and Cyrus more than is probably normal. This is the type of book that you want to sit down and devour from cover to cover, then head to the shop to get the next one in the series. It is a propulsive series that follows the story of Evie, a young woman with a dark and traumatic past, and her evolving relationship with Cyrus, a forensic psychologist.
