What to expect

What goes around comes around

Every summer four friends gather at Barnes Fair to ride the carousel in memory of Esther, the school friend they lost in a car crash they were all involved in as teenagers.

This year, the morning after the fair, one of those friends, Shelley Gregory, is found murdered on that very carousel.

DI Garibaldi has questions to ask. Who killed Shelley, and why there? Is her death linked to the tragedy the friends commemorate each year, or do the answers lie closer to home in the quiet Thameside village of Barnes, where Shelley was well known but not always well liked?

As Garibaldi pieces together the events of that summer night, he uncovers dark undercurrents beneath Barnes’s genteel surface and begins to see the truth: what goes around comes around when you ride the carousel of time.
