Sex, Money, Drugs...DI Garibaldi is on the case. DI Garibaldi and his team are shocked when they discover that local writer, Ben Joseph, has been killed in the same manner and at the same location as the victim in his crime novel 'Schooled in Murder', the night after appearing at the Barnes Book Festival. It transpires the author is in fact a retired private school teacher who has been blackmailing several of his colleagues. As the police delve into the links between fiction and reality, the question looms: could the key to the writer's murder be hidden with the pages of his own novel?
