'Sophie Hannah is genuinely Christie's heir' The Scotsman
He swore he was a killer. The truth was worse.
An overnight plane delay is bad.
Having to share your hotel room with a stranger is worse.

Gaby has never met Lauren Cookson before. So how does Lauren know so much about her? How does she know that the love of Gaby's life has been accused of murder? Why is she telling her that he is innocent? And why is she so terrified of Gaby?

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
A labyrinthine plot and thoroughly unlikable characters hamper Hannah's eighth Sgt. Charlie Zailer and Det. Constable Simon Waterhouse mystery (after 2013's Kind of Cruel). Since Charlie is no longer a member of CID, due to a disastrous previous case, only Simon can officially investigate the murder of Francine Breary, by all accounts a horrible person, whose husband confessed to the killing but doesn't know why. Simon and Charlie bicker constantly about the "Don't-Know-Why Killer," exchanges that are grating rather than endearing. Readers familiar with Hannah's narrative style may latch on more easily than a new audience Charlie and Simon's police work is told in the third person but intermixed with a first-person account from the viewpoint of a mysterious woman. Either way, it's difficult to become invested in a case populated nearly exclusively by unpleasant people.
