Resolution

Denise Mina

Irresistibly blending suspense, mystery, compassion, raw instinct, and grim wit, Resolution provides a wrenching conclusion to Denise Mina's universally acclaimed Garnethill trilogy.

Life has gotten no easier for Maureen O'Donnell since the events in Exile. Already deeply in debt and struggling with alchoholism, she now faces her most formidable challenges yet: testifying against her boyfriend's murderer and the return of her abusive father to Glasgow. As family matters deteriorate and violence hovers over the familiar neighborhoods of Garnethill, the world becomes a darker, more dangerous and even deadly place for Maureen.

Praise for this book

"Denise Mina's Resolution can stand alone, battered and proud, as a class-conscious crime novel that dares to tell the ugly truth."
"We are asked to think hard about the nature of sympathy, justice and retribution. We ponder these questions long after the books end, and ask, How do we apply them to the world we know and the lives we lead?"
"Skip Agatha Christie, skip A Is for..., and get yourself a novel by Denise Mina."
