Summary

A rich old man, Rupert Moncrieff, is beaten to death in the silence of his West Country waterside mansion, his head hooded and his throat cut. His extended family are still living beneath his roof, each with their own room, their own story, their own ghosts, and their own motives for murder. And in this world of darkness and dysfunction are the artefacts and memories of colonial atrocities that are returning to haunt them all.

Critics Review

Hurley’s DS Jimmy Suttle thrillers are my favourite British crime series right now… Hurley’s a master of plotting and superb characterisation… A terrific and tantalising read.”

One of the best of the two dozen or so novels he’s written … the book is as much a story of Suttle and Lizzie’s emotional battles as it is a police who-dunnit, but as it happens the detective element is first class … past atrocities mingling cleverly with present injustice - THE TIMES

There is no-one writing better police procedurals today - SUNDAY TELEGRAPH

Hurley is a giant of British police procedural novels, and with WESTERN APPROACHES we find an author on top of his game - CRIME TIME

Utterly convincing and really exciting - DAILY MAIL

Graham Hurley’s determination to look the seamy reality full in the face is refreshing because it is so rare … Hurley’s devastating account of Suttle’s marriage is one of the best things he has done - DAILY TELEGRAPH
