![]() Ainda não há conversas na Discussão sobre este livro. ![]() ![]() law-enforcement, murder-investigation, british, friendship, humor Extremely convoluted and yet fractured. All of the Jury/Wiggins/Plant books are more than a bit odd, but we read and reread them anyway. Me, I like to follow the freeing of Mrs Wasserman and the antics of Carol Ann of the outrageous lies. Steve West magnifies the drollery with his sardonic narration. The continuing adventures of Superintendent Richard Jury of New Scotland Yard and Melrose Plant, former Earl of Caverness. When a hitchhiker, Sheila Broome is found strangled by her own scarf and 10 months later another woman, Ivy Childress is found dead in the same manner, Richard teams up with local divisional commander Brian Macalvie to solve the crimes. David Marr, related to the Winslow family is the prime suspect without much of an alibi. Richard, Macalvie, Wiggins and Plant need to find the murderer before another crime is committed. sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica

In a rainy ditch in a Devon wood, a hitchhiker is found dead. Almost a year later, on another rainy night, another murder; this time, however, the victim is found just outside a pub called I Am the Only Running Footman, near Berkeley Square in London's fashionable Mayfair District. Devon policeman Brian Macalvie is convinced that the two murders are connected. And thus, in his eighth case, Richard Jury is drawn into the so-called Porphyria killings. A particularly elusive pair of murders. From the streets of London to the village of Somers Abbas, Jury and Macalvie are joined by the stolid if hypochondriac Sergeant Wiggins and the reluctant Melrose Plant. They meet in another pub, the Mortal Man, and, amidst the clatter and cry of the Warboys family, they ponder a labyrinthine set of clues. Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
