A novel by

 
 
Did their conscience get to them? Or did someone else?

An unethical banker suffocates. A diamond dealer slits his wrists. A media magnate freezes in the snow. A disgraced CEO inhales exhaust fumes.

Four unpopular businessmen, four apparent suicides. Until Interpol find the same DNA at each death.

Beatrice Stubbs, on her first case since a personal tragedy, arrives in Switzerland to lead the investigation. But there's more to Zurich than chocolate and charm.

Potential suspects are everywhere, her Swiss counterpart is hostile and the secretive world of international finance seems beyond the law. Battling impossible odds by day and her own demons at night, Beatrice has never felt so alone.

She isn't. Someone's watching.
Someone else who believes in justice.
The poetic kind.

Discover a modern-day Marple in this riveting crime series set against breathtaking European locations.

Wow. Wow, wow, wow. This is a GREAT book." - Sheila Bugler, author of Hunting Shadows

"
Behind Closed Doors crackles with human interest, intrigue and atmosphere. Beatrice and her team go all out to see justice is done. And author JJ Marsh does more than justice to the intelligent heroine who leads this exciting and absorbing chase." - Libris Reviews

"
I hate giving five star reviews because they should go only to the very best books - five stars should mean 'This is a superlative read and there are very few like it'. Well, this is a superlative read and there are very few like it. 5*." - The Bagster, Amazon reviewer
