Close to Death
By global bestselling author Anthony Horowitz, this is a brilliantly entertaining new mystery in the Hawthorne and Horowitz series.
Richmond Upon Thames is one of the most desirable areas to live in London. 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.
Close to Death is a riveting tale of murder, motives, and meticulous deduction. How do you solve a murder when everyone has the same motive?
