MURDER COMES TO LONDON'S MOST LUXURIOUS HIGH-RISE:
AND EVERY RESIDENT IS A SUSPECT.
The Heights: a gleaming, high-end high-rise looming over Hyde Park. Newly built from steel and smoked glass, a billionaire's playground offering sumptuous suites for the global elite.
But when a night concierge is found murdered in the lobby, the building's rarefied atmosphere is shattered, and the gilded lives within come under intense police scrutiny.
In a world designed to keep prying eyes out, where the residents are not used to being held to account, born-and-bred Londoner Detective Gillian Gish must find a way past their power, wealth and unimaginable influence.
The rules may be different at the top - but is anyone truly above the law? Or could it be that the higher you rise, the further you fall...?
THE FIRST STANDALONE THRILLER IN TWO DECADES FROM THE NUMBER ONE BESTSELLER IAN RANKIN
A brand-new full-length novel, expanded from the previously published short story The Rise.
