Oxford, 1963. In a backstreet club, people dance the night away to their favourite band. But behind the scenes there is trouble afoot. An argument is brewing between bandmembers, two possessive girlfriends have plans for their partners, the club manager is creaming off profits - and a tragic accident leaves the lead singer dead.
But was it an accident at all? Coroner Clement Ryder is suspicious, and WPC Trudy Loveday knows there's only one thing for it. She's going undercover, deep into the seedy underbelly of Oxford nightlife.
Meanwhile Clement's own secret is becoming increasingly difficult to keep hidden, and discovering the singer's murderer might not be the only shock in store for Trudy...
An unputdownable murder mystery perfect for fans of Richard Osman, Agatha Christie and Val McDermid!
