Bloody Women

“Quite possibly the greatest psycho noir ever written . . . American readers of dark, brilliant crime fiction need to get hip to FitzGerald now.” —Spinetingler Magazine

Before settling down to a new life in Italy with her fiance´, Catriona decides to lay her past to rest by meeting up with her previous partners. But on the morning of her wedding, Cat is arrested for murder. Not just one murder, but three. All of the victims were her ex-boyfriends, and all of them were viciously mutilated. So now she’s in jail, and the woman who is writing her biography has interviewed many people in Cat’s life. But no one is telling the truth. This is an ingenious and compelling page-turner, full of twists and dark humor from an intriguing and stylish writer with a growing fanbase.

“A delight to find something new . . . funny, moving, horrifying and compelling.” —Times Literary Supplement

“A kind of black comedy and written with wit and humor, despite the theme of murder and violence . . . So this novel has it all—thriller, drama, whodunit, comedy, great characters and good humor.” —The Bookbag

“FitzGerald . . . is adept at arresting openings, tense cliffhangers and tumultuous climaxes.” —The Herald

“Delicious, ingenious, inventive and mordantly funny. Helen FitzGerald has a real skill for making the totally absurd and goofy, thoroughly logical and reasonable.” —Big Beat from Badsville
