A stylish and addictive new mystery from the author of The Other Half, featuring everyone's favourite detective Caius Beauchamp.

'One of the most exciting new voices in crime fiction.' ERIN KELLY

Two murders.
Rosie wakes up at 3am already feeling the twinges of a brutal hangover - an afternoon spent day drinking with her uni pals has left her rather the worse for wear. She creeps downstairs for a glass of water - only to stumble onto a shocking, bloody scene in the kitchen.

One will.
It looks like a botched burglary has left both Rosie's grandmother and her attacker dead. But then Detective Inspector Caius Beauchamp gets a tip about the matriarch's last will. It turns out, this well-heeled family has a nefarious past.

A family full of secrets.
With his reputation on the line and powerful people pressuring him to close the case, Caius must decide what's more dangerous: the body on the floor or the skeletons in the closet?

'A fresh, bitingly witty take on the whodunnit.' RED, ON THE OTHER HALF
'A total joy to read.' HARRIET TYCE, ON THE IN CROWD


WHAT READERS ARE SAYING
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ These books hold every single thing a reader could want. Thriller? Check. Mystery that keeps you wondering? Plenty. Characters that you want to know and see some of your friends in? Sure.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ If you like mystery/thrillers which are just a bit different, are quirky and with plenty of good humour then check out Charlotte Vassel's Caius Beauchamp series.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I absolutely love Charlotte Vassell's writing style, it completely meshes with what I want in a book, quirky, entertaining, a bit gossipy (quite a bit gossipy if I'm being honest) and some characters that you really root for.
