Dead Woman Walking: A Novel

“Criminal, policeman, victim, Bolton plays the three sides of her triangle deftly against the middle . . . guaranteed to provide its share of chills.” —Kirkus Reviews

In Dead Woman Walking, from master of suspense Sharon Bolton, the sole survivor of a hot-air balloon crash witnesses a murder as the balloon is falling.

Just before dawn in the hills near the Scottish border, a man murders a young woman. At the same time, a hot-air balloon crashes out of the sky. There’s just one survivor. She’s seen the killer’s face—but he’s also seen hers. And he won’t rest until he’s eliminated the only witness to his crime. Alone, scared, trusting no one, she’s running to where she feels safe—but it could be the most dangerous place of all . . .

“The satisfactions of a Bolton novel are many. Her plots fit together like a beautifully made jigsaw . . . the end could not be more satisfying.” —Mystery Scene Magazine

“The plot will become unsettlingly twisty, but the author is an expert guide, taking readers on an exceptional and memorable adventure.” —Shelf Awareness

“Bolton’s done it again, writing a terrifying, fast-paced, twisty thriller that will surprise you, reveal after reveal.” —RT Book Reviews

“Thrilling and suspenseful. You will remain glued to its page until you finish it. It’s a necessary crime thriller for those who love crime thrillers.” —Washington Book Review
