Beschreibung

A hugely complex and entertaining novel - Star Pick*, The Times Crime Club Elizabeth George delivers another intelligent, intricate mystery - New York Times Superlative . . . This is a memorable addition to [the Inspector Lynley] series - Publishers Weekly (starred, boxed review) -- When Tani hears his domineering father is negotiating for him to marry a girl in Nigeria, he is determined to defy him. But can he protect his little sister from something much worse? DS Lynley, meanwhile, is investigating the death of a fellow police officer with DSs Barbara Havers and Winston Nkata. The mystery will lead them to the detective's family and relationships, the complex layers of love, ambition, lies and self-deception by those closest to her. It will also lead them to the cases she was investigating for the special task force where she worked. Within North London's Nigerian community, Lynley encounters a world that is far from his experience, and a shockingly controversial cultural practice, which not everyone involved considers to be a crime. Told across a stifling London summer, from housing estates to Hampstead squares, street markets to Chelsea townhouses, Something to Hide will constantly wrongfoot the reader's expectations in a powerful drama of murder, betrayal, heartwrenching suspense and - even in the darkest places - hope. -- More praise for Something to Hide '"Abso-bloody-lutely" good! That would be DS Barbara Havers's verdict on this one . . . An unsettling and thoroughly involving narrative' Booklist 'A skilfully spun yarn of murder and mayhem' Kirkus Reviews 'It feels like meeting old friends and that you're solving the crime together' Belfast Telegraph 'A superbly written, complex but challenging read' Peterborough Telegraph 'A well-plotted, fast-paced mystery' Women's Weekly 'Expert pacing, plotting and the creation of psychologically convincing characters . . . make this well worth reading. Elizabeth George has been the recipient of a number of prestigious awards for her writing . . . This new work, which engages with much darkness but finds some hope, might well gain her more' Irish Examiner
