When a bookseller in Penzance is found murdered, Chief Superintendent Wycliffe summons his team to look into the man’s background, family and business in an attempt to find the culprit. But the man’s relationships with family and others are very complex, and it might take another death before Wycliffe can begin to see the light…. I’ve been enjoying the Wycliffe books, of which this is the 16th volume, but although I liked the setting (having lived near Penzance as a child), this one left me flat. I had the feeling that Burley just sort of ran out of steam toward the end, such that the solution to the mystery was, well, quite dull. A pity. ( ) geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
Onderdeel van de reeks(en)Wycliffe (16)
When Matthew Glynn, a respectable bookseller, is found bludgeoned and strangled, Wycliffe is mystified. Why would anyone want to kill him, and in such a brutal manner? But a look at Glynn's background reveals family tensions. Alfred Glynn, an eccentric recluse, has held a grudge against his brother for years, and the older brother, Maurice, argued bitterly with Matthew over the sale of family land. Add to this a discontented son, valuable documents in the bookseller's safe, and the mysterious, still unexplained disappearance of Matthew's wife years earlier, and Wycliffe is facing one of the most impenetrable cases of his career.
