Description

‘One of the most exciting new voices in crime fiction.’ ERIN KELLY
‘A fresh, bitingly witty take on the whodunnit.’ RED

The night before
Rupert’s 30th is a black tie dinner at the Kentish Town McDonald’s – catered with cocaine and Veuve Clicquot.
The morning after
His girlfriend Clemmie is found murdered on Hampstead Heath. All the party-goers have alibis. Naturally.

This investigation is going to take Detective Inspector Caius Beauchamp down a rabbit hole of Classics degrees and aristocrats, Instagram influencers and who knows who. Or is it whom? Caius isn’t sure — can he pin any of them down long enough to see how the other half live, before anyone else dies?

‘Brilliantly compulsive . . . I could not stop reading this book.’ DENISE MINA
‘Sharply witty . . . an enticing blend of frothy social satire and deadly serious detective work.’ Daily Mail

WHAT READERS ARE SAYING
A perfectly horrid cast of over the top characters and an engaging detective. Glorious.
Such a fun, biting take on the thriller genre . . . I loved this book!
Highly recommend if you enjoy Lucy Foley, I raced through this in less than a day!
