Beschreibung

<p><b>The fourteenth novel in the bestselling series that inspired BBC's <i>Lynley</i></b><br><br>DI Thomas Lynley is still on compassionate leave after the murder of his wife. The discovery of a body in a Stoke Newington cemetery offers Isabelle Ardery, his temporary replacement at the Met, the chance to make her mark with a high profile murder investigation. <br><br>Persuading Lynley back to work seems the best way to guarantee a result: his team is fiercely loyal to him and Isabelle needs them - and especially Barbara Havers - on side. But the Met is twitchy: a series of PR disasters has undermined its confidence. Isabelle knows that she'll be operating under the unforgiving scrutiny of the media, so is quick - perhaps too quick - to pin the murder on a convenient suspect. <br><br>Meanwhile, the murder trail leads Lynley and Havers to the New Forest. Its roots are in a long-ago act of violence that has poisoned subsequent generations and its outcome is both tragic and shocking.<br><br><b>Praise for <i>This Body of Death</i></b><br><br><b>'An intelligent book, clipped and precise, every word chosen with care . . . It is good to have [Lynley] back on such brilliant form'</b><br><b><i>Sunday Express</i></b><br><br><b>'Terrific as always - and how great to have Lynley back on the force'</b><br><b><i>Time Out</i></b><br><br><b>'Hurrah, another Inspector Lynley . . . This is crime writing at its finest. George's books are long, solid and wonderfully crafted; she is a modern Dorothy L Sayers'</b><br><b><i>Saga</i></b><br><br><b>'An intricate plot that will satisfy even jaded fans of psychological suspense'</b><br><b><i>Publishers Weekly</i></b></p>
