DS Priya Nair has spent nine years learning to notice the small things other people walk past. On a wet Tuesday in the coach park at Bicester Village she notices a woman in a grey coat, a man walking half a pace behind her, and a receipt with a shadow pressed across the barcode. The coach party looks like any other. Fifty-one passengers step down, shop for forty minutes and climb back on with more bags than they carried in. The refunds arrive at the till just before the coach leaves, and the same name keeps appearing on paperwork it has no business touching. Nair and DI Alan Fenwick follow the money from the shop floor to a hotel room, from a warehouse stacked with empty designer boxes to an address which vanishes six hours after their first question about it. Each step is legal on its own. Together they add up to a fraud worth millions, and nobody has ever managed to photograph the man behind it. The Bicester Exchange is a British investigative thriller about quiet money, patient crime and the cost of proving what you already know.
