Believing the Lie

Book Description

The fifteenth novel in the bestselling series that inspired BBC's Lynley

Detective Inspector Lynley is approached by business magnate Bernard Fairclough for a confidential review of the circumstances of his nephew's demise. The coroner's verdict is accidental death.

Welcoming a spell away from London, he heads to the wild beauty of the Lake District, with Deborah and Simon St James to provide cover for his inquiries. Barbara Havers, back at base, makes her own unique contribution to the case, distracted only by Isabelle Ardery's ambitions to improve her Detective Sergeant's appearance.

When he comes to know the Faircloughs, Lynley uncovers layers of deceit and betrayal that expose the lies at the heart of the Cumbrian community - and finds many possible motives for murder.
