Body in the Canal

By Catherine Cooper

Book Seven in the Rita Patel Mystery Series

On a study course in Venice, Rita Patel, a history student at Warwick University, is stalked by a stranger who called herself Olga. Months later, the stranger is found dead. Rita is the only means for the police to establish Olga's identity and find out why she was killed.

In the course of helping with inquiries, Rita starts to see her relationship with her Italian boyfriend in a new light. Rita's attempts to trap those responsible for Olga's death put herself and her younger brother, Nayan, in danger, while her friends and her older brother race to help them.

Rita's investigations take place in the multicultural atmosphere of her home city of Leicester in the spring of 2017. She explores how the development of wealth through trade and industry in the past also brought population changes, disease and unrest.
