Rough Cut: Rosie Gilmour 6: Rosie Gilmour
Autor Anna Smithen Limba Engleză Paperback – 14 ian 2016
Rosie has her hands full navigating the sensitivities of this case - the girl's grieving family and the tensions between the white and Pakistani communities in the city - when she is contacted by two prostitutes in serious trouble. One of their clients has died on the job, and they've gone on the run - with his briefcase. The briefcase contains dozens of rough diamonds, and now some thoroughly brutal people are on their trail.
On the surface this has nothing to do with the death of the young girl. But Rosie has spent years looking beneath Glasgow's surface into its murky depths, and if anyone can discover the connection between one girl's forced marriage and a ring of diamond smugglers, it's her.

Recenzii
Chilling and compelling
Anna Smith is the real deal . . . Rosie Gilmour is a captivating character who drags the reader along at breakneck speed
Every single word rings true . . . I can't wait to get my hands on the next one
[Smith] is an excellent wordsmith and her stories are wonderfully crafted, as well as being exciting and gripping
A compelling, concisely written page turner, with a feisty heroine
A dead young bride.
A newly-wed Pakistani girl plummets to her death. Rosie investigates and is drawn to Laila, another girl in the community, terrified of being forced into marriage with a much older man in Pakistan. Then she disappears.
A stash of illegal diamonds.
Two prostitutes turn to Rosie for help when a client dies during an assignment. A briefcase they stole from the dead man turns out to contain some rough diamonds and several fake passports. They know they're in deep trouble.
It's up to Rosie Gilmour to find the connection.
As Rosie flies to Pakistan to try and rescue Laila, it becomes clear that Laila's disappearance and the briefcase are linked - and once back in Glasgow, she discovers just how much danger they are in . . .
Praise for Anna Smith
