Description

A bitingly witty and compulsive crime novel about the bad behaviour of the rich and powerful from rising star Charlotte Vassell.

‘A total joy to read.’ Harriet Tyce
‘Confirms Charlotte Vassell as one of the most exciting new voices in crime fiction.’ Erin Kelly
‘A stylish saga of cops and inverted snobbery.’ The Times

Some people are in
On the last Saturday in August, politicos and socialites trade tidbits of gossip and sips of Pimm’s under the tasteful bunting of a Richmond garden party. They’d never guess that the police are just a stone’s throw away, pulling a body out of the river Thames.

Some people wish they were
The drowning appears to be a tragic accident – until Detective Caius Beauchamp gets an unexpected tip. The victim, it seems, had enemies in high places. Did being on the wrong side of them get her killed?

Either way, being out is absolute murder

Praise for Charlotte Vassell’s debut The Other Half
‘Brilliantly compulsive . . . I could not stop reading this book.’ DENISE MINA
‘As sharp, witty and energetic as it is bitingly satirical.’ JANICE HALLETT
‘Delicious, searing . . . What a great new voice she is in detective fiction!’ S. J. BENNETT
