What to expect
YOU KNOW HOW THEY LIVE. THIS IS HOW THEY DIE.
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?
'One of the most exciting new voices in crime fiction.' ERIN KELLY
'A fresh, bitingly witty take on the whodunnit.'
RED
'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
