THE NEW NOVEL FROM ONE OF THE UK'S FAVOURITE CRIME WRITERS WITH OVER 1.5 MILLION COPIES SOLD.

 A man is found dead, lying at the bottom of the stairs to his flat, his body blocking the door of the elderly woman who lives downstairs. The worried landlord who finds the body seeks advice from his friend's wife-now Detective Inspector Ariadne Moralis. Something in his demeanour hints at a hidden secret.

 When it becomes apparent that the body has been moved, it is clear the man's death was not an accident. With only an elderly witness who seems hesitant to disclose all she heard unless the price is right, and a key suspect on the run having fled the scene, Ariadne finds herself grasping at straws. DNA evidence supports the witness's claims that the victim had two girlfriends, Carly is unwilling to cooperate. Lauren is missing. The motive remains unclear, and the case becomes a confounding maze of unanswered questions, pushing Ariadne to her limits. Meanwhile, Geraldine Steel, adjusting to the routine of a new motherhood, longs for the thrill of being at the centre of an investigation. As the body count grows, and every lead seems to turn out to be a dead end, the case quickly throws up more questions than answers, and Ariadne is rapidly out of her depth. Can her friend Geraldine Steel help her uncover the truth?

My Review:-When a man's body is found at the bottom of the stairs where he lives, Detective Inspector Ariadne Moralis knows the body has been moved, but why and who would of moved him and also where from. The man Jay Roper, who has been murdered is a small time drug dealer with two girlsfriends, Lauren and Carly. When DI Moralis goes looking for them there is a problem, one will not talk and the other has gone missing, could this be connected to the murder.  Detective Inspector Geraldine Steel is on leave after having a baby, but she still offers to help solve the case. There is also a second storyline running, Yiannis the landlord of the property once lived in Greece s did Jay. The story has a few twists that I wasn't sure about at first but one you read it you'll understand. It did feel a bit strange with DI Steel not being the main character but the story still worked great. I do love this series with DI Steel and I can't wait until the next one.
