The last room - Danuta Reah

Adark and haunting exploration of the aftermath of a death and the different ways that a crime may present itself:suicide or murder, police ineptitude or corruptionand will there be more deaths?

When Ania Milosz falls to her death in a Polish city, her father, Will Gillen, accepts the verdict of suicide. Ania, an expert witness, was about to be exposed as a perjurer and a liar. Will knows his daughter was neither, but he also knows the terrible burden she carried from her past when her sister was abducted and murdered. He realizes there is one thing that may have made her fabricate evidence in a harrowing murder case: after all these years, has she found her sister's killer, and has the prospect of his release driven her to the point of suicide? Ania's lover, Dariusz, won't accept this. He knows Ania did not kill herself. Does Will really know his daughter, or is there an even darker story behind Ania's death?
