About this listen

When one of London's best-known Literary Agents is found dead in strange circumstances, having fallen headlong from his office window, DCI Slider is under pressure from the Borough Commander to confirm a case of accidental death. But when the evidence points to murder, Slider and his team find themselves uncovering some decidedly scandalous secrets in the suave and successful Ed Wiseman's past.

An embittered ex-wife. A discarded mistress. A frustrated would-be author. A disgruntled former employee. Many had reason to hold a grudge again the late lamented Literary Agent. But who would feel strongly enough to kill him? Any leads in the investigation seem only to result in more questions - not least of which is the identity of the elusive Calliope Hunt. Who is she - and what is her connection to the train of events?

I love this series it's like watching your favourite police show. I've read a lot in this series and it's a lot of fun watching the characters lives develop. It took a while to get used to a different narrator but once I did all was good

Too many characters and a thin plot. A bit silly really and not engaging at all.

Not up to her usual standard.
