Mystery stories by the Diamond Dagger Award-winning author, "one of the masters of the modern police procedural" (The Sunday Telegraph). A man whose wife has been missing for a year gets some strange phone calls-as well as a visit from Detective Inspector Pascoe-in a novella that pays homage to Edgar Allan Poe. A female journalist faces skepticism from the police when she reports an assault, and finds she may have to confront the attacker herself. A family man wonders what sort of trouble the previous occupants of his new house were mixed up in-and finds some clues that were left behind in the move. These stories-and four more-from the author of the series starring Inspector Peter Pascoe and Superintendent Andrew Dalziel take us on a tour of the shadowy corners of Yorkshire, England, from a stormy churchyard to a gloomy attic, with tales of lust, greed, envy, and, of course, murder. "One of Britain's most consistently excellent crime novelists."--The Times (London) "Hill is never predictable." -Milwaukee Journal Sentinel "Reginald Hill is quite simply one of the best at work today." -The Boston Globe.
