Something to Hide is a hugely complex and entertaining novel, as highlighted by The Times Crime Club's Star Pick.

Elizabeth George delivers another intelligent, intricate mystery, praised by the New York Times.

Recognised as superlative, this novel is a memorable addition to the Inspector Lynley series, according to Publishers Weekly (starred, boxed review).

Detective Sergeant Barbara Havers and Detective Inspector Thomas Lynley are back in the next Lynley novel from Sunday Times bestselling author Elizabeth George.

A Nigerian-born detective sergeant working for the Metropolitan Police is found unconscious in her own flat and ends up in hospital, where she succumbs to her injuries. The post-mortem reveals that the subdural hematoma is the result of a blow to her head.

DI Thomas Lynley, DS Barbara Havers, and DS Winston Nkata are called in to investigate a case that delves into not only the work and life of the murdered detective but also a controversial cultural tradition that damages and often destroys the future of everyone it involves.
