Bestselling author Laura Lippman's latest standalone, Wilde Lake, went on sale at the beginning of May to instant critical acclaim. It was chosen as a LibraryReads pick, received starred reviews from Booklist and Publishers Weekly, and was called “A heady brew of twisting tale and accelerating introspection” by the Richmond Times-Dispatch.
Now, the New York Times will feature a full page review of Wilde Lake in their June 5 issue, saying, "Wilde Lake is engrossing, suspenseful and substantial, its wit easing a sober, somewhat elegiac air.” You can read the full review here.
This really is one of Lippman's most compelling novels yet, that challenges our notions of memory, loyalty, responsibility, and justice in an evocative and psychologically complex story about a long-ago death that still haunts a family. If you haven't already snapped it up, I definitely encourage you to check it out today.
