'If you were to ask me to tell you about my wife, I would have to warn you at the outset that I don't know a great deal about her. Or at least, not as much as I thought I did...'
Alex is a solitary London lawyer who is deeply in love with his beautiful wife, Rachel. When Rachel is brutally murdered one Midsummer Night in Oxford, all of his happiness vanishes. Shrouded in shock and grief, he returns to Oxford that winter and begins to try to piece together the mystery surrounding Rachel’s death, discovering in her wake a tangled web of sex and jealousy, of would-be lovers and spiteful friends, of blackmail, and of revenge.

Review:
"A startlingly original blend of mystery, love story and emotional journey...not be missed" (Stylist)
"An exquisite, creepy and unexpectedly sexy murder mystery...with the tension of a Nicci French thriller, the intellectual fizz of Donna Tatt’s The Secret History and the very best of Maggie O’Farrell’s unnerving readability, Dymott is a classy storyteller... Read this novel now before everyone else starts talking about it" (Elle)
"A powerful meditation on grief, love and the nature of uncertainty" (Sunday Times)
"Elegant and eerie" (Marie Claire)
"Intriguing" (Woman & Home)
"A compelling mystery... I highly recommend it to anyone looking for an intelligent page turner" (Farm Lane Books)
"In addition to creating a cleverly calibrated and creepy murder mystery, Dymott has also fashioned a neatly tailored exploration of the desperate psychology of loss... This is a cunning, sharp first novel that revels in keeping one in the dark" (Independent on Sunday)
"Wholly absorbing" (Evening Standard)
"Wonderfully unique" (The Times)
"It’s rare to feel so completely inside someone’s head" (Psychologies)
