'An outstanding series' – NEW YORK TIMES
Detective Inspector Bill Slider and his team investigate the death of a young man where nothing seems to add up in the fifteenth entry in Cynthia Harrod-Eagles' critically acclaimed crime series.
On a hot summer day, a young man is found dead – apparently by his own hand – in the bath at his flat. But something isn't right about the scene.
The flat is tidy – too tidy. The smell of fresh paint still hangs in the air. The young man's wallet, keys and personal papers are all missing.
Then there's the manner of death: a single slash to the left jugular – a next-to-impossible wound for a left-handed man to have inflicted on himself.
As Bill Slider and his team investigate, it seems that the more they find out about the mystery man, the less they really know . . .
Written with Cynthia Harrod-Eagles' signature sharp plotting and dry wit, this hard-hitting character-driven mystery is a must-read police procedural for fans of Mick Herron, Ann Cleeves and Peter Robinson.
Praise for the Bill Slider series:
'Slider and his creator are real discoveries'
Daily Mail
'Sharp, witty and well-plotted'
Times
'Harrod-Eagles and her detective hero form a class act. The style is fast, funny and furious - the plotting crisply devious'
