Description

The fifth novel in the bestselling series that inspired BBC's Lynley

Elena Weaver exuded intelligence and sexuality. A student at St Stephen's College, Cambridge, she lived a life of casual but intense physical and emotional relationships, with high standards and even higher aspirations.

Until someone, lying in wait on the bank of the River Cam, bludgeoned her to death.

Called into the rarefied world of academia, Inspector Thomas Lynley and his partner Barbara Havers find a tangled web of love, obsession and secrets to die for.

Praise for For the Sake of Elena

Rosamunde Pilcher

'Ingenious... It is very well and subtly done'
Sunday Times

'A fascinating psychological picture of people under pressure'
Penelope Fitzgerald
