โฆ Synopsis
"ANOTHER WINNER...The British police procedural continues to flourish."
โBooklist
Scotland Yard Superintendent Duncan Kincaid and Sergeant Gemma James are sent to suburban Surrey to investigate the murder of a high-ranking police officer. Alastair Gilbert was bludgeoned to death in his kitchen, and the list of potential suspects is longโthe man's arrogance earned him widespread enmity both in the village where he lived, and in police circles. But Duncan and Gemma must put aside their personal feelingsโfor the victim, as well as for each otherโto solve the most troubling case either has faced...
"ENGAGING...A finely tuned procedural... Ongoing complications in the evolving relationship between James and Kincaid add depth to the proceedings. With her meticulously and affectionately drawn cast, Crombie is closely attentive to every facet of the tiny village and demonstrates that if country life is clannish and inbred, the small world of the police force is much the same."
