One sister is a cop. The other a con artist. Both are suspects.
DI Tess Fox’s first murder scene has two big problems. One, the victim was thrown from the balcony of a flat locked from the inside. Two, Tess knows him.
But the biggest problem of all is Tess’s half-sister, Sarah. She has links to the deceased and has the skills and criminal background to mastermind a locked-room murder. But she’s a con-artist, not a killer.
When two more bodies turn up, Tess now has three locked room mysteries to solve and even more reason to be suspicious of Sarah. Can she trust someone who breaks the law for a living, even if she is family?
'A clever modern interpretation of a classic locked-room mystery, with two engaging protagonists and an ending I never saw coming' - Faith Martin
'I loved this book! It’s deliciously complex – a mystery that really makes you think, with characters that refuse to be pigeonholed. I turned the last page and wanted more' - Imogen Clark
