About the Book

The astonishing thirteenth Tom Thorne novel is a story of kidnapping, the tabloid press, and a frightening case of mistaken identity. Tom Thorne is on holiday with his girlfriend DS Helen Weeks, when two girls are abducted in Helen's home town. When a body is discovered and a man is arrested, Helen recognizes the suspect's wife as an old school-friend and returns home for the first time in twenty-five years to lend her support. As his partner faces up to a past she has tried desperately to forget and a media storm engulfs the town, Thorne becomes convinced that, despite overwhelming evidence of his guilt, the police have got the wrong man. There is still an extremely clever and killer on the loose and a missing girl who Thorne believes might still be alive.

Review :
Praise for Time of Death: Longlisted for the 2016 Theakstons Old Peculier Crime Novel Of The Year A Telegraph Best Crime Fiction Book of the Year One of Entertainment Weekly's "10 Great Summer Thrillers" One of the Guardian's "Best Recent Crime Novels" "Some ingenious forensic footwork. What is most impressive about the novel, however, is the astute observation of the beleaguered Bates family, who turn in on themselves as the inhabitants of the town turn on them."--Guardian (UK) "Clever and inventive."--Financial Times "The writing displays the virtues that have made Mark Billingham a bestseller: wit, careful plotting, attention to detail (some of it gruesome) and great characterization--not just Thorne and Helen but subsidiary figures such as the e-cigarette-puffing local police chief . . . An entertaining read. This won't disappoint Billingham's legions of fans."--Telegraph (UK) "Billingham conjures many moods in this suspenseful thriller . . . This is a multilayered, expertly crafted look at the many moving parts of an investigation and the terror unleashed by a crafty killer."--Booklist (starred review) "Builds to a surprising and satisfying climax."--Publishers Weekly "DI Tom Thorne and his lover, DS Helen Weeks, return to Helen's hated hometown in Warwickshire to confront some ugly accusations and some even uglier secrets. . . . What lingers in the memory is the group portrait of the Polesford locals brutally closing ranks against a man they're certain deserves to die."--Kirkus Reviews "Billingham has seemed to be incapable of writing any way but wonderfully since Sleepyhead, his first Tom Thorne novel . . . Billingham is always spot on, but Time of Death is pitch-perfect, evenly balanced between plot and character. You won't be able to read it without wondering why all books can't be this good."--Bookreporter Praise for Mark Billingham: "Morse, Rebus, and now Thorne. The next superstar detective is already with us--don't miss him."--Lee Child "Billingham is one of the most consistently entertaining, insightful crime writers working today."--Gillian Flynn "Billingham is a world-class crime writer and Tom Thorne is a wonderful creation. Rush to read these books."--Karin Slaughter "With each of his books, Mark Billingham gets better and better. These are stories and characters you don't want to leave."--Michael Connelly "Mark Billingham is one of my favorite new writers."--Harlan Coben "Billingham is one of the best crime novelists working today."--Laura Lippman "Mark Billingham has brought a rare and welcome blend of humanity, dimension, and excitement to the genre."--George Pelecanos "Billingham leaps to the upper echelons of crime fiction in one bound."--John Harvey
