Maxwell's Reunion by M J Trow

When Peter Maxwell attends a school reunion of the class of '65, all is not as it seems among his old chums. They are career men, family men - but the years have taken their toll, and the seething tensions of the school years surface in unlikely ways. At the end of the reunion weekend, a man is dead, hanging from the bell rope of the old school. When a second death occurs, Maxwell finds himself in the midst of a murder investigation. What is the secret that has been lurking under Maxwell's nose all these years - and could he be on the murderer's list for killing No. 3?
"1 Praise for the Maxwell series: 'The most sardonic wit in current crime fiction.. One reads Trow's books for the brilliance of his writing' Birmingham Post (MAXWELL'S CURSE) 2 'A refreshingly original protagonist... Highly readable' The Times (MAXWELL'S WAR) 3 'Trow's touch has never been surer. Refreshing as ever, the characters simply leap off the page' Yorkshire Post (MAXWELL'S WAR) 4 'An impressive mix of humour, sadness and suspense, this is gripping to the very end' Mail on Sunday (MAXWELL'S MOVIE) 5 'Trow is a consummate plotter, not afraid to tread new ground, and his Maxwell stories exude compassion and wit in equal measure' Yorkshire Post (MAXWELL'S MOVIE)
Educated at Warwick, London and Cambridge, M J Trow is now a teacher of History, and lives in a Victorian vicarage on the Isle of Wight with his wife and son.
