Payment in Blood is a crime novel by Elizabeth George.[1] Inspector Lynley and Barbara Havers investigate the murder of a playwright which took place in a remote hotel. On this occasion, the inspector comes into conflict with the principles of the English upper class, of which he himself is a member.

A German translation by Mechtild Sandberg-Ciletti was published first by Blanvalet in 1991 under the title Keiner werfe den ersten Stein.[2] It was subsequently also published in paperback form by Goldmann.[3]
