Kids can be so cruel.
They'll call you names.
Hurt your feelings.
Push you to your death.

In the garden of an abandoned house, Luke Connolly lies broken, dead. The night before, he and his friends partied inside. Nobody fought, everybody else went home safely. And yet, Luke was raped and pushed to his death. His alleged attacker is now in custody.

DCI Tom Reynolds is receiving the biggest promotion of his career when a colleague asks him to look at the Connolly case, believing it's not as cut and dried as local investigators have made out. And as Tom begins to examine the world Connolly and his upper class friends inhabited, the privilege and protection afforded to them, he too realises something.

In this place, people cover up for each other. Even when it comes to murder.

The story is good but the little political references get annoying. Jo Spain is clearly liberal, which is fine, but not needed for the story and sometimes feels like a stretch to make a point and include her personal opinions on issues vs adding to the story in any way. Especially the little quips about conservatives. Everything is so political now days, I just want to enjoy a story and not make it a social justice thing. I love inspector Reynolds’s and Jo Spain is a great author, but I found myself rolling my eyes multiple times and saying “we get it”

No question what Jo Spain’s politics are
