От издателя
The third in the bestselling Richard Jury mystery series by Martha Grimes.
A spinster whose passion was bird-watching, a dotty peer who pinched pennies, and a baffling murder made the tiny village of Littlebourne a most extraordinary place. And a severed finger made a ghastly clue in the killing that led local constables from a corpse to a boggy footpath to a beautiful lady’s mansion.
But Richard Jury refused, preferring to take the less traveled route to a slightly disreputable pub, the Anodyne Necklace. There, drinks all around loosened enough tongues to link a London mugging with the Littlebourne murder and a treasure map that would chart the way to yet another chilling crime.

Anodyne Necklace
An entertaining read thou trying to keep track of all the characters made it hard to guess who dunnit. The prominent characters proved memorable and entertaining. The author also excels at dropping in a turn of phrase that makes one giggle even while being horrified by the horror and mayhem that brought Jury and Plant to the small town of Horndean.
