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?

Eleştirmen yorumları

(CLOSE TO DEATH is one of) the five best murder mystery novels of all time
Easily the greatest of our crime writers
[Horowitz is] a master puppeteer
'A clever murder mystery…playful and twisty. Nobody does this crime fiction better than Anthony Horowitz
Spectacularly good fun, wickedly clever, with a pinch of the macabre, this is everything you could wish for from one of our top crime writers
I had a great time with Close to Death by our best living thriller writer, Anthony Horowitz. Set in a gated Richmond enclave, it combines endless narrative surprises with sharp observation of the professional classes
Turns the closed-circle mystery inside out
The master of the mystery
The king of the clever whodunnit
An excellent entertaining thriller

I loved this book, I’ve enjoyed the whole series so far but this is the best one yet! I love the parallel stories taking place and the slightly darker edge to Hawthorne. I’m just sorry I’ve listened to it so early and have to wait for the next installment! Keep them coming Anthony!

Best so far!

Wonderful story beautifully written. As someone who lives in Richmond I loved all the references to the shops the river and places around the town.
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.

A brilliant book in the series- great use of timelines and lots of subplots that caused me to think one thing - then another! Can’t wait for the next one.

Another brilliant book in the series
