A murder has  taken place in the offices of the Peverell Press, a venerable London publishing house  located in a dramatic mock-Venetian palace on the Thames. The victim is Gerard Etienne,  the brilliant but ruthless new managing director, who had vowed to restore the firm's  fortunes.  Etienne was clearly a man with enemies-a discarded mistress, a rejected  and humiliated author, and rebellious colleagues, one of who apparently killed herself  a short time earlier.  Yet Etienne's death, which occurred under bizarre circumstances,  is for Dalgliesh only the beginning of the mystery, as he desperately pursues the  search for a killer prepared to strike and strike again.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47122985156848,"sku":"2940169149807","price":24.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940169149807_p0.jpg?v=1763762691","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940169149807","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
