Tess is back! Hush Hush by Laura Lippman is the twelfth novel following the adventures of private detective Tess Monaghan, and it marks a huge change in the sleuth's life: Tess is now a mother, and while she's learning to deal with those unique struggles, she's also pulled into a disturbing case involving murder and a manipulative mother.
Hush Hush garnered excellent reviews in the months leading up to publication: Marilyn Stasio of the New York Times Book Review says, "Lippman knows her stuff and introduces some clever plot twists and turns (not to mention a murder). But her character studies, largely drawn from the way people feel about having children, are exceptional," and it received starred reviews from Library Journal, Kirkus, and Publishers Weekly.
And now it's finally on sale! Happy Book Birthday, Laura and Tess! Make sure you check out Tess's latest absorbing mystery today.
