From the creator of SLOW HORSES and soon to be a major TV series starring Emma Thompson and Ruth WilsonIf you havent read Zo Boehm yet, welcome to your next fiction addiction Val McDermid, author of Past LyingThis is one of these novels where you read it, not just to see what happens at the end, but to see what happens on the very next page BooklistWhen a body is hauled from the River Tyne, Sarah Tucker heads to Newcastle for a closer look. She identifies the dead woman as private detective Zo Boehm, but putting a name to the corpse only raises further questions. Did Zo kill herself, or did one of her old cases come back to haunt her? Why was she wearing the jacket a murderer had stolen years before? And whats brought Sarahs former sparring partner Gerard Inchon to the same brokendown hotel where shes staying? Coincidence is an excuse that soon appears pretty unconvincing. Sarah cant leave until shes found the answers to her questions, however dangerous they might turn out to be.
