Murder is on the menu for Detective John McLeish at the fashionable Café de la Paix in Covent Garden. Charming restauranteur Selina Marsh-Hayden is found dead in her chest freezer.
The restaurant was for sale and the deal ready to be signed.
Except Selina was refusing to sell.
There is no shortage of suspects for McLeish. Francesca Wilson has already shown him that all involved in the restaurant deal had a lot of money to lose.
The sale had to happen.
Then Selina’s husband is found dead from an overdose. McLeish is convinced it’s murder. And when further attacks continue on the restaurant staff McLeish realises the killer has another motive.
Something far more sinister . . . and deadly.
Fans of P.D. James, Robert Galbraith, Ngaio Marsh and Agatha Christie will devour this classic crime series full of twists.
