Some people are in On the last Saturday in August, politicos and socialites trade tidbits of gossip and sips of Pimm's under the tasteful bunting of a Richmond garden party. They'd never guess that the police are just a stone's throw away, pulling a body out of the river Thames. Some people wish they were The drowning appears to be a tragic accident - until Detective Caius Beauchamp gets an unexpected tip. The victim, it seems, had enemies in high places. Did being on the wrong side of them get her killed? Either way, being out is absolute murder Praise for Charlotte Vassell's debut The Other Half - available now 'Brilliantly compulsive . . . I could not stop reading this book.' DENISE MINA 'As sharp, witty and energetic as it is bitingly satirical.' JANICE HALLETT 'An incredible crime debut.' ERIN KELLY 'Scintillating.'

This is the second in the Detective Inspector Caius Beauchamp series following The Other Half. I‘m really enjoying this series as it goes along, following DI Beauchamp and his co-workers Matt and Amy and their various investigations. This outing finds the crew investigating two cases; one, a cold case (20 years old) involving a missing teenage girl from a boarding school in Cornwall; second, an embezzlement cold case that resurfaces due to the 🔻

robinb discovery of a body and the machinations of a powerful government bureaucrat. There are also new developments in Caius‘s personal life as well as the reappearance of a former villain in a prior investigation.

I really liked how deftly Vassell interwove both the cases in this book as well as the two books in the series.

Smart, funny and a series I‘m looking forward to following. 4.25/5⭐️ 4w

The second in a series featuring DI Caius Beauchamp. I‘ve enjoyed both in those series, Beauchamp is a bit different from the usual troubled detective. The ending sets us up nicely for a third book, which o will look forward to reading.

I can confirm that I still love Caius Beauchamp and this second book in the series is just as good as the first. Caius and his partners Amy and Matt, make a great team. I am glad they are getting a series. There are some repeat characters from the first book, I guess to help with continuity? I would prefer not to have Rupert show up again. I'm just here for the detective story and the banter. I will definitely read the next in the series.
