It is an excellent book, isn’t it, Lauren? And you have a good point that it has a wide appeal, both for its literary merits and its merits as a crime novel. I think it’s one of her better books!
Sold! I loved A Dark Adapted Eye a few years ago, and as usual haven’t got around to reading anything else. This one sounds good (I’ll close my eyes at the part where the dog dies 😉 )
Oh, I do hope you’ll like it, FictionFan. I really do think it’s got a lot to recommend it. And about the dog…fortunately (if you can say such a thing) it’s a case of a dog coming naturally to the end of its life, so no cruelty or anything. Still, I glossed over that part a bit myself…
I love this book and have read it many times. itâs a great loaner too as it appeals to a wide readership.
