'The next Gillian Flynn' IRISH INDEPENDENT Sheena Kamal holds an HBA in Political Science from the University of Toronto, and went on to work in the film and TV industry, most recently as a researcher for a crime drama series being developed for television. Her research into crime and investigative journalism inspired her debut bestseller Eyes Like Mine. From the author of EYES LIKE MINE comes another gripping suspense novel featuring Nora Watts - a woman as intriguing and kick-ass as Lisbeth Salander. Sheena's debut, Eyes Like Mine, won her a 2018 Kobo Emerging Writer Prize, a Strand Magazine Critics Award and Macavity Award for Best First Novel. It was also a Canadian bestseller. For fans of Stieg Larsson, Sharon Bolton and Peter Swanson. Dark and suspenseful, IT ALL FALLS DOWN takes Nora to a city that is as broken as she is. Nora is a survivor. Like Lisbeth Salander readers will respond to her - she's engaging, sympathetic and kick-ass. EYES LIKE MINE has been getting some great reviews. It's a compelling word of mouth book. Nora is still trying to come to terms with the events from EYES LIKE MINE and is starting to connect with her daughter, Bonnie. Sheena Kamal's writing is as fearless as her protagonist, Nora Watts. It has a dynamite premise that reminded me of Michael Connelly's Blood Work, in which the hero is asked to solve the murder of the woman whose heart ended up in his chest. Kamal has an equally devious starting point . . . Kamal uses the conventions of the crime novel to cast a critical eye on Vancouver's societal dysfunction, racism and poverty Sheena Kamal writes with urgency and authority. I read this book in huge gulps, and in Nora Watts, Kamal has created a fresh and compelling heroine that readers will love. Outstanding Intricately plotted. A tense, taut thriller with a flawed, compelling heroine. I want to read more about Nora Watts
