NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The murder of a wealthy socialite sends a small island into chaos, and it’s up to Detective Inspector Thomas Lynley and forensic scientist Simon St. James to solve the case before the killer strikes again in this gripping installation of the renowned Inspector Lynley series.

Don’t miss the upcoming BritBox streaming series Lynley!

“A full banquet. As a mystery novel—no, as a novel pure and simple—A Place of Hiding is entertainment of a high order.”—The Washington Post

An isolated beach on the island of Guernsey in the English Channel is the scene of the murder of Guy Brouard, one of Guernsey’s wealthiest inhabitants and its main benefactor. Forced as a child to flee the Nazis in Paris, Brouard was engaged in his latest project when he died: a museum honoring those who resisted the German occupation of the island during World War II. It is from this period that his murderer may well have come. But there are others on Guernsey who want Guy Brouard dead. As forensic scientist Simon St. James and his wife, Deborah, soon discover, seemingly everyone on the history-haunted island has something to hide. . . . And behind all the lies and alibis, a killer is lurking.
