The Fall by Gilly Macmillan is a gripping locked-room mystery set around a close-knit, remote community of people with secrets to hide. Perfect for fans of Lucy Foley and Claire Douglas.

Be careful what you wish for...

Nicole and Tom's lives are changed overnight by a ten-million-pound lottery win. Before they know it, they've moved into a state-of-the-art Glass Barn conversion in the stunning grounds of Lancaut Manor in Gloucestershire.

But their dream quickly turns into a nightmare when Tom is found dead in the swimming pool, with a nasty wound on the back of his head. Someone close to home must be responsible. But other than the young couple who live in the Manor, and their housekeeper in the Coach House next door, there's no one around for miles.

Who among them is capable of murder?
