Synopsis

“Laura Lippman is among the select group of novelists who have invigorated the crime fiction arena with smart, innovative, and exciting work.”
—George Pelecanos“Lippman’s taut, mesmerizing, and exceptionally smart drama of predator and prey is at once unusually sensitive and utterly compelling.
—BooklistLaura Lippman, New York Times bestselling author of What the Dead Know, Life Sentences, and the acclaimed Tess Monaghan p.i. series, delivers a stunning stand-alone novel that explores the lasting effects on lives touched by crime. With I’d Know You Anywhere, Lippman—master of mystery and psychological suspense, winner of every major literary prize given for crime fiction, including the Edgar®, Agatha, and Nero Wolfe Awards—tells a gripping and richly textured tale of a young woman whose life dangerously entwines once again with a man on Death Row who had kidnapped her when she was a teenager. This is superior mystery writing in the vein of Kate Atkinson.

Goodreads review by Angela on June 01, 2011

Really, Stephen King? "The best suspense novel of the year?" I read this book based on King's recommendation in Entertainment Weekly but, wow, NOT suspenseful, at least in the way that I feel suspense should work: fascinating premise, bread crumb trail of hints and insights, increased anxiety and se......more

Goodreads review by Tina on August 29, 2020

This story captivated me from beginning to end. It's not a true mystery but a bit of a "psychological thriller." I just found it to be a really good story and very well written. Eliza Bennett, is a married mother of two who seems to live a happy, content life, until one day a mysterious letter arriv......more

I wasn't sure at first that I was even going to like this story. Actually... I found that it started out slow showing us seemingly unimportant and boring facts about the victim's life, who is now an adult and the mother of two children. We learned that the family had returned to the U.S. from London......more
