'Superbly and elegantly written... executed with skill, finesse and considerable compassion. A very impressive debut from a fully-formed writer' Irish IndependentShortlisted for The Betty Trask, The Val McDermid Debut Award and The CWA Gold Dagger.Anna Deerin moves to a remote Cotswold cottage to become a gardener, trying to strip away everything she’s spent all her life as a woman striving for, craving the anonymity and privacy her new off-grid life provides.But when she clears the last vegetable bed and digs up not twigs but bones, the outside world is readmitted.With it comes Detective Inspector Hitesh Mistry, who has his own reasons for a new start in the village of Upper Magna.Drawn in spite of herself to this unknown woman from another time, Anna is determined to uncover her identity and gain recognition for her, if not justice.As threats to Anna and her new life grow closer, she and DI Mistry will find that this murder is inextricably bound up with issues of gender, family, community, race and British identity itself – all as relevant in decades past as they are to Anna today.

The stunning new crime novel from rising star and multi award shortlisted author, Bonnie Burke-Patel.'Gorgeously atmospheric and tightly plotted.. a beautiful love story and a confounding locked-room thriller' Rebecca Hannigan'Literary, lyrical... a deeply satisfying whodunnit' Emma vanThey gather at Saints’ Climb, the only house on an island off the Somerset coast. Seven men with nowhere else to be at Christmas. Father and son George and Xavier Starvely; James, a taciturn archaeologist uneasy with the living; Victor, a French widower; Rik, the groundskeeper; and Chris and Nathan, the two men who want to make a documentary about this place and its extraordinary collection of medieval art. And the housekeeper Marianne, who seems to find peace in serving. Erected around the stone labyrinth built into the floor by monks, Saints’ Climb is a house heavy with loneliness.Xavier Starvely is a successful academic with a real life elsewhere. Yet he is wracked with guilt over the fragmentary memories of a childhood tragedy, and when his guests arrive on the island for Christmas, the deaths begin afresh.A labyrinth is different from a maze. There are no false turns or dead ends: there is only one winding path, which, followed faithfully, will always lead to the centre. What will each find at the centre of the labyrinth? And can it save them?Bonnie's debut I Died at Fallow Hall was shortlisted for The CWA Gold Dagger, The Betty Trask and The Val McDermid Awwards.
