About the Book

Nora Watts is being hunted... When Nora Watts is approached by a man claiming to know her late father, she is thrown into turmoil. Struggling with the imminent death, from cancer, of her friend and mentor Sebastian Crow, she is unprepared for the memories that this encounter brings back. What happened to her father that made him kill himself and abandon Nora and her sister? Heading to Detroit to try and find some answers about his life there, Nora expects to discover a reason behind his suicide. Instead, she finds more questions than answers. But trouble always follows Nora, and it's found her in Detroit, a city that is as broken as she is.

About the Author :
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.

Review :
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 Private investigator Nora Watts is troubled to say the least. In Kamal's first novel, Eyes Like Mine, Nora searched for the missing daughter she had to give up for adoption when she was herself a teenager; whereas here, she attempts to uncover the secrets of her dead father's past. The search takes Nora from Vancouver to Detroit and via some very dark places along the way - but Nora's bone-dry, understated wit and casual fearlessness carry her, and us, through the novel with an irresistible momentum. Highly recommended 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 A brave, unflinching heroine and brave, unflinching writing adds up to an extraordinary debut - highly recommended Utterly compelling, rich with voice and psychological insight, populated with heartbreakingly real characters, Eyes Like Mine will stay with you for a long, long time. Perhaps forever Suspenseful, atmospheric and often deeply moving . . . one of the most complicated and fascinating protagonists I've come across in a long time. I'd follow Nora Watts (and her dog) anywhere A fresh and original character who grips the reader with her grit and courage. We're rooting for Nora Watts from the outset and I can't wait to read more of her story A thoroughly compelling new series... a dark and powerful read A heady blend of a familial mystery and drug-infused gang revenge. And Kamal certainly knows how to paint a vivid backdrop Nora retains a youthful freshness and frankness... flawed and very real, she'll make you root for her It All Falls Down is well written with strong tension and a good plot. Strong and uncompromising, it packs a really strong punch and is worth reading for that alone An intricately plotted and even paced mystery. Interwoven into the storyline are true to life events that add a compelling layer to this complex and fascinating story Kamal's affinity for the unusual, character-driven mystery excels in "It All Falls Down... A sense of sadness permeates the novel, from Kamal's gritty look at Detroit and unflinching look at Vancouver's neighborhoods to the flawed characters. Yet Kamal also injects a sense of hope and closure for Nora, and Whisper, and makes readers root for their future There are writers who tell you a story and then there are those that can transport you to the world they have created; telling a story so realistically that the reader feels like they're there in the thick of it. Kamal is in the latter category There are writers who tell you a story and then there are those that can transport you to the world they have created; telling a story so realistically that the reader feels like they're there in the thick of it. Kamal is in the latter category A great read featuring a really fresh and original heroine and a compelling storyline Vivid and evocative A lot of issues pop up in this novel - from gang crime to politics and everything in-between. It's not the kind of book I'm used to reading but I did enjoy it very much. In fact, I want more! I liked the author's writing style and that combined with the suspenseful plot and the intriguing characters made the story flow smoothly Well written and well researched this is an old-fashioned thriller brought way up to date. A great read
