Five Bells and Bladebone
Five Bells and Bladebone | Martha Grimes
4 posts | 8 read
When a dismembered corpse is found in the compartments of an antique secretaire a abattant, Marshall Trueblood, recipient of the precious piece of furniture, is the first to protest: "I bought the desk, not the body, send it back." Who would want to kill Simon Lean, the greedy nephew of the wealthy Lady Summerston? Leave it to Superintendent Richard Jury of Scotland Yard to suggest a connection to the murder of brassy Limehouse lady named Sadie Driver, found dead near Wapping Old Stairs...if that stone-cold body on the slipway is really Sadie. Not even her brother, Tommy, on a visit from Gravesend, can swear to it.

Very confusing mystery for Jury. Who is who, and who dunnit are definitely in question. Can he solve it? Maybe... Different from most of his cases.

I've been reading quite a lot of older books. Enjoying the simpler times, with mysteries that don't feature gunplay every other page.

The man married for money, but never let marriage get in the way of his love life. Around the same time, Sadie Diver is also stabbed to death. Sadie who just came into a bit of money. It's up to Jury to solve both murders.
