'Swimming Home' is a subversive page-turner, a merciless gaze at the insidious harm that depression can have on apparently stable, well-turned-out people. Set in a summer villa, the story is tautly structured, taking place over a week in which a group of beautiful, flawed tourists in the French Riviera come loose at the seams.

After the body of a man is found outside a lido he was fighting to save from closure, suspicion falls on those looking to redevelop the site. Soon after the man overseeing the development dies in suspicious circumstances. Are the deaths connected to the development, or is there another reason behind them? DI Gilchrist and DS Heap investigate.
