An electrifying thriller from the author of the bestselling Everyone In My Family Has Killed Someone. One million viewers witness a popular TV presenter commit suicide live on air - so why is his twin brother convinced it was murder?

How can it be murder when the victim pulled the trigger?

At 9.01 pm, TV presenter Sam Midford delivers the monologue for his popular current affairs show Midnight Tonight. He seems nervous and the crew are convinced he's about to propose to his girlfriend live on air.

Instead, he pulls out a gun and shoots himself in the head.

Sam's grief-stricken twin Harry believes his brother was murdered. But how can that be, when millions watched Sam pull the trigger?

Only Jack Quick, a disgraced television producer, is desperate enough to take Harry's money to investigate.

But as Jack starts digging, he uncovers a mystery more complex than he first assumed. And if he's not careful, he'll find out first-hand that there's more than one way to kill someone...
