'Crisp as a gin and tonic and delightfully wicked . . . I had to force myself not to binge it in one night.' Kevin Kwan, author of Crazy Rich Asians
Murder. It's terrible for your karma.
Even worse for your holiday.
Welcome to Samsara, a world-class spa nestled in the Indian Himalayas where all your wishes are only a gilded notecard away. Ro Krishna has just checked in. With his rakish charm, Oxford education, and perfect hair, he had it all - well, until he left his job under mysterious circumstances. It was super hectic, and Ro decides it's time for some much-needed R&R. At Samsara, he's free to explore the innumerable yoga classes, wellness treatments and guided meditation sessions on offer alongside the rest of the exclusive hotel's guests.
Until one of the guests - gorgeous, charismatic, well-connected, like most of them - is found dead. As everyone scrambles to figure out what happened, Ro is pulled into an investigation that endangers them all and threatens to spiral beyond the hotel walls. Because it turns out it's not just heiresses and Bollywood stars-to-be that have checked in: cocktail hour is over, and death is on the prowl . . .
Bursting with wit, glamour and smarts, Death in the Air is a murder mystery like no other: at once a love letter to Agatha Christie and a razor-sharp exploration of colonialism and class.
'A mystery with wit so sharp you'll get papercuts.' Jack Heath, author of Kill Your Husbands
'Glamourous, gripping, absolutely heaps of fun. I loved this.' Lucy Foley, author of The Guest List
