The go-to place for writers in Gloucestershire and South Gloucestershire
The discovery of a teenager bludgeoned to death in an alley drags Chief Inspector Harry Hart away from a ritzy dinner and into conflict with spineless coppers, coke pushers and Annalee Hargreaves, the snooty Headteacher of posh Highdean School. He discovers that the murder wasn’t the only disaster to intrude upon her privileged world and peels away Highdean’s layers of deceit and deception to expose a rotten core of callous selfishness and pure evil.
Hart enjoys a laugh, but there’s nothing funny about the final misfortune he unearths. Because his cussed determination doesn’t only catch a killer – it also reveals the heartbreaking secret of how a schoolkid ended up Dead Unlucky.
