We live in a society governed by Fear. Packets of peanuts `may contain nuts', our children are locked away safe indoors, and we are encouraged to fear risks that previous generations took for granted. The result is a temptation never to leave the house. How to Live Dangerously is a sane, straight-talking, wonderfully entertaining manifesto that assesses the real risks of modern-day life*, and encourages us to embrace a new freedom in the way we live. Sometimes, sh1t happens - but you may as well get out there and enjoy yourself while you can because, in the end, you're a long time dead. *Don't like your children much? You'd have to lock them out of the house every day for 186,000 years before they were abducted (and even then you'd get them back within 24 hours) *Afraid of flying? If you really want to die in a plane crash, you'll need to take a flight a day for the next 26,000 years . . .

When obscure crime writer Ethelred Tressider vanishes, his dogged literary agent, Elsie Thirkettle, is soon on his trail. Finding him (in a ramshackle hotel in the French Loire) proves surprisingly easy. Bringing him home proves more difficult than expected – but (as Elsie observes) who would have predicted that, in a hotel full of stamp collectors, the guests would suddenly start murdering each other?
One guest is found fatally stabbed, apparently the victim of an intruder. But when a rich Russian oligarch also dies, in a hotel now swarming with policemen, suspicion falls on the remaining guests.
Elsie is torn between her natural desire to interfere in the police investigation and her urgent need to escape to the town’s chocolaterie. Ethelred, meanwhile, seems to know more about the killings than he is letting on. Finally the time comes when Elsie must assemble the various suspects in the Dining Room, and reveal the truth... Ten Little Herrings is a brilliantly anarchic take on the classic Country House Mystery, and an uproarious sequel to the first Elsie and Ethelred mystery, The Herring Seller’s Apprentice.
Praise for The Herring Seller’s Apprentice, the first Elsie and Ethelred Mystery:
‘Masterful’ Financial Times
‘A classic detective novel’ Scotsman
‘Unusually accomplished’ Helen Dunmore
