A former Bunny Girl . . . A famous comedy duo . . . A body found in a lake . . . The stunning new novel from the author of 'My Best Friend'.
In 1967 Bunny Girl Alice Jones met Lenny Maxted - one half of the brilliant comic duo, Maxted and Flowers - and fell deeply in love with him. But, like so many great comics, Lenny had a dark side. Their love affair ended when Alice found his body hanging from a beam in a Wiltshire cottage.
Seven years after his death, in the long hot summer of 1976, Alice is leading a quiet, almost reclusive life in an Oxfordshire farmhouse when, out of the blue, Lenny's partner, Jack Flowers, turns up on her doorstep. Alice has not seen him since Lenny's funeral, but her surprise and pleasure turn to an all too familiar sense of unease when she discovers that he is distressed and drinking heavily.
At the same time a car containing human remains is fished out of a Wiltshire lake . . .
