A propulsive new thriller set in London featuring Detective Harbinder Kaur from the author of the No 1 bestselling Dr Ruth Galloway Mysteries. A murderer hides in plain sight - in the police.

DS Caitlin Fitzgerald has a secret - but it's one she's deleted from her memory. In the 1990s when she was at school, she and her friends killed a fellow pupil. Thirty years later, Caitlin is happily married and loves her job as a police officer.

One day her husband persuades her to go to a school reunion and another ex-pupil, Garfield Rice, is found dead, supposedly from a drug overdose. As Garfield was an eminent Labour MP and the investigation is high profile, it's headed by Caitlin's new boss, DI Harbinder Kaur. The trouble is, Caitlin can't shake the feeling that one of her old friends has killed again.

Is Caitlin right, or was Garfield murdered by one of his political cronies? It's in Caitlin's interest to skew the investigation so that it looks like the latter and she seems to be succeeding.

Until someone else is killed...

Kritikerstimmen

As ever, Griffiths skilfully blends complex plotting with a cast of wonderfully vivid characters
This standalone thriller is a page-turner with an engaging cast of characters. It provides an enjoyable take on the classic killer-at-a-school-reunion, horror-movie trope, before delivering a jaw-dropping twist
Witty takes on life, love and relationships pepper the novel and make the plot all the more appealing
The third outing for Detective Harbinder Kaur, this is an easy-to-read, rewarding mystery
Filled with Griffiths's trademark good humour, this is not only a well-researched police procedural but also a very comforting novel
Once again Elly Griffiths has created an ingenious mystery with hidden depths
A tightly paced, character-driven book
A cleverly plotted page-turner that's well up to Griffiths's vertiginously high standard
A typically twisty treat from Griffiths

If you like classic crime novels. Beautifully read, a good story and likeable detectives.
I have enjoyed this audiobook very much

A pleasure to listen to

A nice crime mystery that will not keep you up nervously at night, but this is meant as a compliment. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Wonderfully read

The plot itself is okay, not too exciting, but nice. If there hadn't been constant repetitions, the story could have been told it half the time maximum.
All in all, it is one of Elly Griffith's weakest books. She is an amazing writer, but this one didn't work out.
The narrators do an okay job, not more, not less.

okay but too long

It's a long and boring book. Most of the characters are pretty unlikeable, including Harbinder. Overall, disappointing.

Boring
