The Calleshire Chronicles Volume Four: Last Respects, Harm's Way, and A Dead Liberty (The Calleshire Chronicles: Volume Four)

Synopsis

A set of perfectly puzzling British whodunits featuring Detective Inspector Sloan—from a CWA Diamond Dagger winner and &“most ingenious&” author (The New Yorker). Over the course of twenty-four crime novels set in the fictional County of Calleshire, England, and featuring the sleuthing team of shrewd Detective Inspector C. D. Sloan and his less-than-shrewd sidekick, Detective Constable William Crosby, award-winning author Catherine Aird maintained the perfect balance between cozy village mystery and police procedural. These three entertaining crime novels offer &“the very best in British mystery&” (The New Yorker). Last Respects: A local fisherman finds a body in the river—but the coroner&’s report reveals the victim didn&’t die from drowning. Now Calleshire&’s most successful pair of puzzle-solving policemen must plumb the depths of this mystery and haul in a murderer. Harm&’s Way: When a crow drops a severed human finger, Sloan begins the search for the body that goes with it—and the list of people who have gone missing from Great Rooden&’s farming country is lengthy. With Constable Crosby lending a hand, it&’s up to Sloan to point the finger at the culprit. A Dead Liberty: A crime of passion, a poisoned meal, and a jealous woman who would kill before she would be spurned—it might all fit if only the accused would talk. But Lucy Durmast refuses to utter a single word. With Lucy&’s lips sealed, Sloan has no choice but to listen to his intuition.
