No Rest for the Wicked

Rachel Louise Adams was raised in a small town in Brittany by a French father and a North American mother. After spending most of her childhood reading and writing, she went on to study literature at university (Universite de Bretagne Occidentale), graduating with honours and getting a PhD scholarship. When she's not working, reading or writing, she loves spending time with her partner, her friends and family.

Something wicked this way comes trick-or-treating: No Rest for the Wicked creeps in like a Halloween cozy mystery, then cuts like an autopsy incision straight down the reader's imagination.

Seriously?'... I am experiencing it once again with Rachel Louise Adams' No Rest for the Wicked... The book impresses on every level-suspense, characters, plot, twists, milieu and quality of writing.-BookPage starred review
