About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

One happy couple.
Two divided families.

A wedding party to die for.

On the private island of Castle Fiore - surrounded by the glittering waters of Lake Garda - the illustrious Heywood family gathers begrudgingly for their son Laurence's wedding to Italian influencer Eva Bianchi.

But as the ceremony begins, a blood-curdling scream brings the proceedings to a devastating halt.

With the wedding guests trapped as they await the police, old secrets come to light and family rivalries threaten to bubble over.

Everyone is desperate to know . . .

Who is the killer?

And can they be found before they strike again?

Critic reviews

Heir to Christie
A clever, classy and captivating murder mystery that keeps you guessing through each devilish twist (Chris Whitaker)
No one does murder better than Tom Hindle. Murder on Lake Garda is a twisty, twisted who-dun-it that keeps you guessing until the final page. And it’ll make you desperate to book a holiday to Italy, despite all the killing and intrigue. Essential (Adam Simcox)
A fast paced, twisty tale of glamour, intrigue and murder on the shores of Lake Garda. With enough red herrings to keep even the most ardent armchair detective puzzled, this is one wedding invitation you’ll want to accept (Fiona Leitch)

The tension rises with the heat in this suffocating summer murder mystery from Tom Hindle. Every page is filled with suspicion and intrigue.

Clever, compelling and brilliantly atmospheric, this is a classic whodunnit in the best sense

(Katy Watson)
A delightfully glitzy murder-mystery with family rivalry, old feuds and a killer twist
An excellent work that shows the dark underside of the British elite, of influencers and of Italian high-society
Clever and entertaining
There's no doubt Hindle has quickly established himself as a reliable purveyor of old-fashioned crime fiction thrills
Full of suspicious characters, crafty red herrings and clever twists, Hindle’s latest murder mystery is a read-in-a-single-sitting book
All stars

Disappointing. A good idea made over-complicated and let down by the willingness of the characters to suspect each other when in fact it was obvious almost from the start who the murderer was. The narrator’s voice was grating which did not help.

Too many red herrings

A 'Cosy' Murder. Small island that no one can leave. The guests, most of them disliking the murdered victims, a modern day Agatha Christie. But a lot easier to solve.

A Moden Day Agatha Christie

Compulsive reading/listening :-) Really enjoyable and engaging story. Looking forward to reading the others now! Def a recommend for my book group :-)

Absorbing and clever way of doing a murder mystery

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

Have been equally as impressed with every book from Hindle so far. It is a perfect read for someone who wants something light but also with enough complexity to keep you stimulated. Really looking forward to his next release

Top tier - best yet

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

Written by a man, male voice would have been better. Bit repetitive, nothing like as good as Tom Hindle’a last two, highly enjoyable, books. Felt this was lazy.

Annoying narration
