The Heights
£25.00The Heights is a gleaming, high-end high-rise looming over Hyde Park. Newly built from steel and smoked glass, it is a billionaire’s playground offering sumptuous suites for the global elite. But when a night concierge is found murdered in the lobby, the building’s rarefied atmosphere is shattered, and the gilded lives within come under intense police scrutiny. In a world designed to keep prying eyes out, where the residents are not used to being held to account, born-and-bred Londoner Detective Gillian Gish must find a way past their power, wealth and unimaginable influence. The rules may be different at the top – but is anyone truly above the law? Or could it be that the higher you rise, the further you fall?

Matthew Phillips, a respected heart surgeon, is reluctantly called for jury duty on the case.
