Time of Death

FROM THE MULTI-MILLION-COPY BESTSELLING AUTHORTime waits for no man…It’s 2003, and Trainee Detective Constable Max Ryan is tired of pen-pushing and ready to get stuck into the gritty underbelly of London in the aftermath of the Millennium, where murder rates are at an all-time high. Instead of chasing serial killers or tackling gang crime, he’s assigned to the case of a missing clock mechanic, whose disappearance from Big Ben’s iconic tower would never have made a by-line in the Evening Standard, were it not for the fact that it caused the grey-suited workers of the Palace of Westminster to be late by precisely seven minutes…Booted into action by his indomitable mentor, senior officer and no-nonsense oracle in all things, Detective Inspector Ivy Bunton, he soon finds himself drawn into a mystery that goes far deeper than he imagined, into the very bowels of the Palace of Westminster. A page-turning crime thriller packed with mystery, intrigue, and razor-sharp twists, this is the perfect detective series for readers who love atmospheric settings, gripping murder investigations and unforgettable characters. -------------------------------------------Readers love LJ Ross:“She keeps company with the best mystery writers” — The Times“A literary phenomenon” — Evening Chronicle“Totally gripping from start to finish” - 5-star reader review“Great twists and turns that keep you guessing” - 5-star reader review
