THE DEVIOUS NEW MYSTERY FROM THE INTERNATIONALLY BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE ERNEST CUNNINGHAM SERIES


TEN HEISTS. TEN SUSPECTS. A PUZZLE ONLY ERNEST CUNNINGHAM CAN SOLVE...

My name is Ernest Cunningham. I’ve spent the last few years solving murders. But a bank heist is a new one, even for me.

The doors are chained shut. No one’s coming in or out. Which means that when someone in the bank is murdered, hostages become suspects.

THE BANK ROBBER
THE MANAGER
THE SECURITY GUARD
THE TEENAGE GAMER
THE FILM PRODUCER
THE PRIEST
THE RECEPTIONIST
THE PATIENT
THE CARER
ME

Turns out, more than one person planned to rob the bank today – and you can steal more from a bank than just money…

Who is stealing what? Who is not only a thief, but also a killer? And can I crack the case, before time runs out?

'Clever, satisfying, impossible to put down and gloriously inventive. It's fantastic' STUART TURTON
