ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

In Elizabeth George's "A Banquet of Consequences," Detective Inspector Thomas Lynley and his team investigate the death of feminist writer Clare Abbott. The inquiry soon reveals a complex web of relationships, secret lives, and hidden motives surrounding Clare's close associates. The detectives uncover Clare's duplicitous nature through her secret book about online adultery and her extramarital encounters, providing possible motives for someone wanting her silenced. As Lynley and his team delve deeper, they consider sodium azide as the murder weapon and try to determine how it was acquired and administered. The story revolves around themes of betrayal, resentment, and the dark secrets that can lie beneath the surface of even the most public figures.
