Detective Inspector Bill Slider is saved from having to finish his canteen lunch by a call-out to a murder, but it presents him with the problem of a dead conductor. In life, Sir Stefan Radek was seriously famous and terminally unpleasant, but neither of these facts seems reason enough to gun him down. However, as Slider delves into the megastar's private life, he finds there is no shortage of suspects, as everyone seems tastelessly glad that Radek is dead. Lies, lovers past and present, and a hotbed of squabbles and financial shenanigans complicate the already tangled case.

And with Slider's lost love, Joanna, a witness to the crime, his own life's jigsaw puzzle seems suddenly as complex as tracking down a most unlikely murderer.

Praise for the Bill Slider series:

Slider and his creator are real discoveries.

Daily Mail

Sharp, witty, and well-plotted.

Times

Harrod-Eagles and her detective hero form a class act. The style is fast, funny, and furious; the plotting crisply devious.
