Samenvatting

Agatha Christie meets Made in Chelsea in this bitingly funny police procedural packed with the suspense, wit, and energy of Knives Out

Agatha Christie meets Made in Chelsea

'Vassell's sharply witty debut novel is an enticing blend of frothy social satire and deadly serious detective work.' Daily Mail
'Brilliantly compulsive . . . I could not stop reading this book.' DENISE MINA
'As sharp, witty and energetic as it is bitingly satirical.' JANICE HALLETT

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 be about Classics degrees and aristocrats, Instagram influencers and who knows who. Or is it whom? Detective Caius Beauchamp isn't sure. He's sharply dressed, smart, and as into self-improvement as Clemmie - but as he searches for the dark truth beneath the luxury, a wall of staggering wealth threatens to shut down his investigation before it's begun.

Can he see through the tangled set of relationships in which the other half live, and die, before the case is taken out of his hands?

Bitingly funny, full of twists, and all too close to reality, this is a stunning debut from your next favourite crime writer.

'An incredible crime debut.' ERIN KELLY
'Scintillating.' HARRIET TYCE
'Delicious, searing . . . What a great new voice she is in detective fiction!' S. J. BENNETT

Hoe controleren en plaatsen wij reviews? Hoe controleren en plaatsen wij reviews?

Negatief, positief, neutraal: we zetten een review altijd online. We controleren wel eerst of ’ie voldoet aan onze reviewvoorwaarden en niet nep is. We controleren ook of ’ie is geschreven door iemand die het artikel heeft gekocht via bol.com en zetten dit er dan bij. De controles gebeuren automatisch, al kijken er soms mensen mee. Bol.com betaalt niet voor reviews. Als een reviewer door een andere partij is vergoed, staat dit in de review zelf.
