Drummond, praised as the most exciting newcomer to crime fiction by the Birmingham Post, crafts a narrative laced with dry humour and clever plotting that keeps readers on edge from the first page to the last. The novel carries the same consistently witty, often howlingly funny tone that earned his second book glowing notices from The Scotsman, demonstrating a sharp instinct for comedic timing within the crime genre. This is a rare series that balances genuine suspense with infectious wit, cementing Drummond's reputation as a distinctive and formidable voice in British crime fiction.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48956435529947,"sku":"2026100006206-SECONDHAND","price":30.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/0334de11-555f-4209-af70-006b323bdeec.png?v=1783501012","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100006206-secondhand-the-odds-on-death","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
