Book Synopsis
"An original, compelling, hard-hitting thriller, Dead Note takes off like a bullet train and doesn't let up until the heart-stopping finale." --A.A. CHAUDHURI
A killer's greatest hit starts with a song . . .
Mia Cordova's world imploded when her father was shot dead in front of her while singing a karaoke classic. The police insisted that his death was the result of a random barroom brawl - an open and shut case - but when, years later, another man is killed in the same way, singing the same song, Mia is convinced the two killings must be connected.
When a newspaper article draws a link between the murders, Mia is thrown into an investigation that leads her into Manila's underworld of interrogations, gambling rings and shootouts. With the police quick to cast suspicion on her, Mia must bring her father's killer to justice alone. But can she catch a killer before she becomes his next victim?
