About this listen
Brought to you by Penguin.
A Sunday Times bestseller
How do you solve a murder... when everyone has the same motive? From global bestselling Anthony Horowitz, a brilliantly entertaining mystery in the Hawthorne and Horowitz series.
Richmond Upon Thames is one of the most desirable areas to live in London. And Riverview Close - a quiet, gated community – seems to offer its inhabitants the perfect life.
At least it does until Giles Kenworthy moves in with his wife and noisy children, his four gas-guzzling cars, his loud parties and his plans for a new swimming pool in his garden.
His neighbours all have a reason to hate him and are soon up in arms.
When Kenworthy is shot dead with a crossbow bolt through his neck, all of them come under suspicion and his murder opens the door to lies, deception and further death.
The police are baffled. Reluctantly, they call in former Detective Daniel Hawthorne. But even he is faced with a seemingly impossible puzzle.
How do you solve a murder when everyone has the same motive?

‘Sheer genius … A joy from start to finish’ Independent
'The master of the mystery' Style
'The king of the clever whodunnit' Good Housekeeping
'Gloriously artificial, improbable, and ingenious. Fans of both versions of Horowitz will rejoice.’ Kirkus Reviews
'‘An absolutely engrossing tale ... Kudos to anyone who can figure this one out!’ Starred Booklist

This is my first read of the series of books so I am going back to book one to enjoy . I very much recommend the book and I love the fact that it does not need to resort to any bad language or unnecessary violence to deliver the mystery.

Wonderfully crafted and beautifully read

The end was slightly disappointing for those who like things wrapped up neatly, as it wasn’t proven, just surmised
Best yet - but slight spoiler
