Publisher Description
A British detective must find the killer of a much-despised villager in this mystery from the CWA Silver Dagger Award-winning author.
Det. Inspector Luke Thanet is brought in when a dead man is found in bed, apparently killed by a single blow with a blunt object. When the corpse is identified as Steven Long, the question is no longer who wanted to kill him, but who didn't? A troublemaker with enemies wherever he went, Long was loathed by everyone in town, from his long-suffering ex-wife to the man whose family he killed in a driving accident. To find the culprit, Thanet will have to get to the bottom of a lifetime of hate.
Praise for Dorothy Simpson
"A modern-day version of Agatha Christie." —Booklist
"Dependably pleasing." —The Boston Globe
Dead on Arrival is the 6th book in the Inspector Thanet Mysteries, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order.
Customer Reviews
Dead on Arrival
It was a bit slow going. But that is the nature of police procedurals. The story line was good, with the exceptional twists. Kept me guessing till the end.
