Dupe marks the debut of Anna Lee, one of crime fiction's most compelling female private investigators, in this sharp and atmospheric British mystery. Set in London, the novel follows Anna Lee — a young woman working for the Brierly Security Agency — as she is hired to investigate the seemingly accidental death of a young woman whose parents refuse to accept the official verdict. What begins as a routine inquiry soon uncovers a web of deceit, exploitation, and danger lurking beneath the surface of ordinary life. Written with gritty realism and dry wit, Liza Cody's debut established a landmark in British crime fiction and launched a celebrated series that would go on to win the Crime Writers' Association John Creasey Award for Best First Crime Novel.
