Chains

Jan Richter

Synopsis

A brilliant murder mystery of shifting perspectives, motivations, and politics from the author of Rabbit Hole. The owner of Brookhaven Care Home has been stabbed to death in his office, and DS Ursula Pembridge is called out to investigate the murder of the prominent property developer. When Owen Caulfield, campaign staffer for the local Labour MP, arrives to find his boss’s planned visit has been cancelled due to the tragedy, he decides to stay and visit his elderly father instead. And so begins this uniquely compelling crime thriller. With each chapter told from a different point of view, Chains pulls us into the recent history of Britain and introduces us to adulterer and blackmailer, politician and private detective, environmentalist and killer—and reminds us that whether it’s about current events or criminal activities, we all see situations very differently . . .
