Swimming with the Dead by Peter Guttridge
A body found stabbed repeatedly outside the local lido leads DI Sarah Gilchrist and DS Bellamy Heap into an intriguing new case. With the local lido under threat of closure by ruthless businesswoman Alison Sutherland, the Save the Salthaven Lido campaigners are fighting a desperate battle to keep it open. When the lead campaigner is discovered dead, partially drowned and stabbed repeatedly, suspicion falls upon Alison. No sooner have DI Sarah Gilchrist and DS Bellamy Heap spoken to Alison, one of her colleagues suffers a heart attack - despite being in good health - during a long-distance, open-water swim. Hot on the heels of this, another swimmer turns up drowned. Are all the deaths connected to the Salthaven development? Is someone targeting open-water swimmers? Gilchrist and Heap race to uncover the truth before more victims come to the surface.
Guttridge, Peter: - Award-winning comic crime author Peter Guttridge turned from the Daft Side to the Dark Side for his Brighton mystery series, which started with the City of Dreadful Night and with the last in the series being 2014's Those Who Feel Nothing. He was also the Observer's crime fiction critic for twelve years, meaning he's read far more crime fiction than is good for him.
