From the no.1 bestseller Val McDermid comes a gripping mystery â" Lindsay Gordon dives into the world of London publishing to investigate a murder

First appearing as a deadly accident, Penny Varnavidesâs death is quickly revealed to be a murder â" one that bears a shocking resemblance to the killing in her upcoming book.

Only three people knew the plot of Pennyâs manuscript: her literary agent, her editor and her ex-girlfriend, Meredith, who is immediately arrested.

Writer Lindsay Gordon is convinced of Meredithâs innocence, and delves into the cutthroat and competitive world of London publishing in search of a murderer.
