Ian struggling with his demons from the Great War, often hunting men in the same condition. This one takes place in the Fens and has lots of atmosphere and colorful locale and locals as well as the psychological depths these books keep exploring. (  ) majkia | Sep 5, 2021 | ) MrsLee | May 3, 2021 |  ) jeanbmac | Jul 28, 2020 | I typically have more trouble enjoying historical fiction books. However, this one was definitely an exception. I loved getting to know the characters and trying to piece together the mystery. The majority of the characters in this book are very likable. I know that there are many books by Mr. Todd featuring the detective Ian Rutledge, however, I am sad to know that many of the characters in this book would not be featured in other books. The only true complaint that I had about this book was that, at times, the author seemed quite "long-winded". There were times where I felt like he was dragging out things that were not very important. But, that is a very minor complaint. I would probably recommend this book to anyone, but especially those who enjoy the mystery genre. ( ) nicholthecat | May 24, 2019 |

A society wedding at Ely Cathedral in Cambridgeshire becomes a crime scene when a man is murdered. After another body is found, the baffled local constabulary turns to Scotland Yard. Though the second crime had a witness, her description of the killer is so strange its unbelievable. Despite his experience, Inspector Ian Rutledge has few answers of his own. The victims are so different that there is no rhyme or reason to their deaths. Nothing logically seems to connect them??except the killer. As the investigation widens, a clear suspect emerges. But for Rutledge, the facts still don't add up, leaving him to question his own judgment. In going over the details of the case, Rutledge is reminded of a dark episode he witnessed in the war. While the memory could lead him to the truth, it also raises a prickly dilemma. To stop a murderer, will the ethical detective choose to follow the letter??or the spirit??of the Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
