On compassionate leave after the murder of his wife, Inspector Thomas Lynley is called back to Scotland Yard when the body of a woman is found stabbed and abandoned in an isolated London cemetery. His former team doesn’t trust the leadership of their new department chief, Isabelle Ardery, whose management style seems to rub everyone the wrong way. In fact, Lynley may be the sole person who can see beneath his superior officer’s hard-as-nails exterior to a hidden—and possibly attractive—vulnerability.
Elizabeth George has been called a “master of the English mystery,” by The New York Times, and The Wall Street Journal raves that “Ms. George can do it all, with style to spare.” Embraced by fans, critics, and colleagues, George’s Inspector Lynley series consistently positions her high on bestseller lists, and the praise just gets better and better. Elizabeth George has won the Anthony Award, the Agatha Award, and France’s Le Grand Prix de Literature Policiere for her novel A Great Deliverance, which was also nominated for the Edgar and the Macavity Awards. Most of her novels have been filmed by the BBC and been broadcast in the US on PBS’s Mystery.
