Fran Varady is insolvent, unemployed, and, though for the moment she's got the leaky roof of the squat she shares in Jubilee Street over her head, she'll very soon be homeless thanks to the council eviction department. Her dreams of becoming an actress, nurtured when her father and grandmother were still alive, seem a long way off. But Fran is a survivor . . . which her former housemate, Terry, found hanging from the ceiling of her room, clearly is not. Terry, secretive and selfish, was far from popular with the rest of the household, but her death shakes the Jubilee Street Creative Artists' Commune, as the squat residents half jokingly call themselves. And, the more Fran discovers about the death of the young woman whose life briefly intersected with her own, the more she begins to see it was not all it first seemed.

"This is my first book by this author. I found it to be unique and entertaining. Fran, the protagonist, is a homeless woman living in London. The setting in which she lives forms an integral part of the story. I enjoyed this audiobook so much that I'm already beginning #2."
— Terri (4 out of 5 stars)
" The first of the Fran Varady series. A lovely "gentle" crime thriller. "
— Windy, 6/1/2013" I loved it, though I have serious concerns for Fran's safety if she's intending to head off and become a private detective. She only 'solved' this one by default when the baddie decided to kill her, good thing Gan's got her back. "
— Helen, 5/9/2013" Scary, but a little predictable (if you've read anything else of Ms Granger's recently.) And one loose end I'd like to get to the bottom of: What about Euan? He seemed like a nice bloke. "
