About This Item
Author's seventh novel: Superintendent Richard Jury... finds himself in the tiny village of Ashdown Dean, where a series of odd animal deaths have been followed by those of aged postmistress Una Quick and the pub-owner's strident wife Sally Macbride. Jury quickly realizes that the puzzle's key lies with teenaged, taciturn Carrie Fleet... using a tiny clue and his gorgeous upstairs neighbor, topless dancer Carole-Anne Palutski, Jury tracks down Carrie's past, but it's in Ashdown Dean that the tragic showdown comes. (from Kirkus reviews); AHEARN, APG 007b.
Synopsis
In a village plagued by missing pets, Scotland Yard's Richard Jury and sidekick Melrose Plant face the worst of human nature when a chilling old crime leads them to a brand new way to die.
