'One of the most exciting new voices in crime fiction.' ERIN KELLY
'A total joy to read.' HARRIET TYCE


WINNER OF THE EDGAR AWARD FOR BEST NOVEL 2025


Being in is everything.
Calliope Foster is standing, Pimms in hand, under tasteful bunting at a Richmond garden party. She's here to toast her best friend's engagement.

Being out is murder.
Meanwhile, just a stone's throw away, police are pulling a body out of the river Thames. The drowning appears to be a tragic accident - but as Detective Inspector Caius Beauchamp is about to discover, the death is connected to this gathering of who's who in a way that could very well spell scandal.

There may be a wedding to plan, but a dead body will unravel even the best-laid plans . . .

WHAT READERS ARE SAYING
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ WOW . . . Fabulously plotted, excellent characters and what a twist at the end.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The book is unputdownable (just like the last). I am just annoyed at myself at how quickly I read it!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Filled with dead bodies, shocking twists and surprises, and even romance, this second book in the series is as good if not better than the first.
