Klappentext:
§A RICHARD AND JUDY BOOK CLUB PICK
'Fiendish good fun' ANTHONY HOROWITZ
If you want to get away with murder, play by the rules
Years ago Malcolm Kershaw wrote a list of his 'Eight Favourite Murders' for his Old Devils mystery bookshop blog. Among others, it included those from Agatha Christie's The ABC Murders, Patricia Highsmith's Strangers on a Train and Donna Tartt's The Secret History.
Now, just before Christmas, Malcolm finds himself at the heart of an investigation - as an FBI agent believes someone may be re-enacting each of the murders on his list.
Can the killer be stopped before they get away with eight perfect murders?
'An ingenious game of cat-and-mouse' The Times
'Never less than enthralling' Daily Mail
