Discover an absolutely gripping locked-room murder mystery set in sunny Thailand, featuring a British detective abroad — armchair travel at its finest! Perfect for fans of Death in Paradise.

Meet Vijay Mistry. He used to work a desk job at Bristol City Council. But adventure called! Now he lives in the bustling city of Bangkok, doing translations . . . and solving mysteries.

He loves a good puzzle. But his latest case will test his skills to the limit.

When respected English antiques dealer Arthur Cavendish falls from the balcony of his luxury apartment, the police quickly conclude he took his own life. A locked room. No forced entry. No sign of a struggle.

Case closed — right?

Vijay agrees, when he’s asked to investigate as a personal favour. But as he follows the trail from high society parties and upscale antique shops to the city’s darker corners, his instincts begin to prickle.

Then a second, shocking death stops Vijay in his tracks.

And the part-time detective realises that the truth he’s chasing is far more complex — and far more dangerous — than he ever imagined.

Fans of Alexander McCall Smith, Vaseem Khan, Martin Walker, Anthony Horowitz and Agatha Christie will love this addictive, character-driven murder mystery.
