2 posts | 7 read
An admired local historian is found dead and half-buried in a farmer’s field in the village of Gratly. A slimy land-developer, an editor, a local thriller writer, and a beautiful folk singer are all figures from the historian’s past, and all of them are suspects. Sally, a young would-be actress, knows more than she’s telling and wants to solve the case herself, but may find herself in danger. There’s trouble brewing beneath Gratly’s idyllic surface, and Chief Inspector Alan Banks must get to the bottom of the village’s secrets. Second in the critically acclaimed Inspector Banks Mystery Series.

Bk4 of May is done. The 2nd DCI Banks was better than the 1st, though still very much of the late 80s. Banks is called to the discovery of a body in Helmthorpe, a small village near Eastvale. A retired History professor has had his head bashed in & buried under a drystone wall. A complicated case is laid out with twists, turns & another murder thrown in. Really enjoyed this one again. #SeriesLove2024 #BacklistReadathon #ReadAway2024

And that‘s a wrap on my December #BookSpin! I really enjoyed this mystery, the second of the DCI Banks series. The characters are developing nicely, and the mystery itself was so well done. High marks indeed! My library has the next book on audio, so I think that‘s in my future.

9 books read from my #BookSpinBingo card. Not too shabby in the end.

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! Great month!! 4y
