D.S. Guy Poole has just arrived at new new posting at Bexford, and is teamed up with D.I. Sam Brock when they are called out to the graveyard at Lower Gladdock. It seems a body has been discovered in a grave, unfortunately in a newly dug grave meant for the coffin belonging to a Edie Gaven. An enjoyable mystery, a well-written story with its very likeable characters. A very good solid start to the series.
Replaced by a much younger actress, Mary Blaks accepts an invitation to a murder mystery party at her family home, Blancham Hall. But among the guests is that young actress, Melanie Shaw. But next morning brings a dead body, in a locked room. As the prime suspect Mary intents to help Inspector Corrigan finds the guilty party. An entertaining modern cozy mystery.
Another great character driven procedural complete with an embarrassing mum! But it's also a fine procedural trying to do the diligence with a bunch of entitled and batty television actors and a star struck pathologist. Brock and Poole are the best! Nigel Patterson showcases his talents by differentiating the characters, and his range of accent and tone is really great.… (más)
Definitely a character driven mystery, and the characters certainly are. But it's also a good procedural with exceptional due diligence. The publishers blurb is a good hook, so no need for recap or spoilers. Very good read! Nigel Patterson showcases his talents by differentiating the characters, and his range of accent and tone is really great.
