There was a fair bit of repetition in the middle of this book. An officer would be told something by a witness and then repeat it all to a colleague. I didn't really connect to the plot this time for some reason, and I so very tired of Wesley treating Pam as if she and her needs/wishes/career are less important than his. ( ) Wesley investigates the death of a true crime writer investigating the case of a family apparently murdered by their housekeeper in the 1980s while Neil is on a dig in America, and running a rather awkward errand for his grandmother while he's over there. As usual, nice and twisty as past and present are reflected in each other. The ending hints at soap opera-ish goings-on in the offing. I hope not. This book has a good and twisty present day story; and for (I think) the first time in this series I didn't find the historical part of the plot to be whacking me over the head with a sledgehammer. Different to the other books as the local archeologist, Neil, got shunted off to the States for most of the book. Which probably helped. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

The brutal massacre of the Harford family at Potwoolstan Hall in Devon in 1985 shocked the country and passed into local folklore. And when a journalist researching the case is murdered twenty years later, the horror is reawakened. Sixteenth century Potwoolstan Hall, now a New Age healing centre, is reputed to be cursed because of the crimes of its builder, and it seems that inheritance of evil lives on as DI Wesley Peterson is faced with his most disturbing case yet. As more people die violently, Wesley needs to discover why a young woman has transformed a dolls house into a miniature reconstruction of the massacre scene. And could the solution to his case lie across the Atlantic Ocean, in the ruined remains of an early English settlement in Virginia USA? When the truth is finally revealed, it turns out to be as horrifying as it is dangerous. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
