Dog's Twilight

In Oxford, a bestselling author revisits an old secret . . . Why is bestselling author Tessa Wainwright visiting Oxford again after so many years abroad? Even Vince, her agent and factotum, is in the dark but Conrad Merrivale, a student doing vacation work at the hotel she's staying at, unearths the reason. Conrad, with his taste for hard drugs and Richard Wagner, decides to blackmail Tessa, setting in train a cat and mouse between him and Vince which eventually spirals into violence and death. "An evocative descent into a world of blackmail, betrayal and murder." -Guy Burt, author of After the Hole
