From the Publisher:
Detective Sergeant Barbara Havers and Detective Inspector Thomas Lynley are back in the next Lynley novel from #1 New York Times bestselling author Elizabeth George.

When a police detective is taken off life support after falling into a coma, only an autopsy reveals the murderous act that precipitated her death. She'd been working on a special task force within North London's Nigerian community, and Acting Detective Superintendent Thomas Lynley is assigned to the case, which has far-reaching cultural associations that have nothing to do with life as he knows it. In his pursuit of a killer determined to remain hidden, he's assisted by Detective Sergeants Barbara Havers and Winston Nkata. They must sort through the lies and the secret lives of people whose superficial cooperation masks the damage they do to one another.

Tani's domineering father is negotiating for him to marry a girl in Nigeria, a fate he is determined to defy. But can he protect his little sister from something much worse? The conflict will spiral beyond their tight-knit area of North-east London, with consequences no one could predict.

Acting Detective Superintendent Lynley, meanwhile, is investigating the death of a fellow police officer with Detective Sergeants Barbara Havers and Winston Nkata.

The mystery of how the detective died will lead the team into the complex layers of love, ambition, lies and self-deception created by those closest to her. For Lynley, it means encountering a world far from his experience, and a shockingly controversial cultural practice, which not everyone involved considers to be a crime...
