What to expect

Brought to you by Penguin.

One happy couple.
Two divided families.

A wedding party to die for.

On the private island of Castle Fiore - surrounded by the glittering waters of Lake Garda - the illustrious Heywood family gathers begrudgingly for their son Laurence's wedding to Italian influencer Eva Bianchi.

But as the ceremony begins, a blood-curdling scream brings the proceedings to a devastating halt.

With the wedding guests trapped as they await the police, old secrets come to light and family rivalries threaten to bubble over.

Everyone is desperate to know . . .

Who is the killer?

And can they be found before they strike again?

Critics Review

Heir to Christie
Daily Mail
A clever, classy and captivating murder mystery that keeps you guessing through each devilish twist
Chris Whitaker
No one does murder better than Tom Hindle. Murder on Lake Garda is a twisty, twisted who-dun-it that keeps you guessing until the final page. And it’ll make you desperate to book a holiday to Italy, despite all the killing and intrigue. Essential
Adam Simcox
A fast paced, twisty tale of glamour, intrigue and murder on the shores of Lake Garda. With enough red herrings to keep even the most ardent armchair detective puzzled, this is one wedding invitation you’ll want to accept
Fiona Leitch

The tension rises with the heat in this suffocating summer murder mystery from Tom Hindle. Every page is filled with suspicion and intrigue.

Clever, compelling and brilliantly atmospheric, this is a classic whodunnit in the best sense

Katy Watson
A delightfully glitzy murder-mystery with family rivalry, old feuds and a killer twist
iNews
An excellent work that shows the dark underside of the British elite, of influencers and of Italian high-society
The Critic
Clever and entertaining
Crime Time
There's no doubt Hindle has quickly established himself as a reliable purveyor of old-fashioned crime fiction thrills
Herald
Full of suspicious characters, crafty red herrings and clever twists, Hindle’s latest murder mystery is a read-in-a-single-sitting book
