Inspector Thanet faces a case shaped by family secrets
Fair to good condition - Heavy wear to the edges and spine with visible creasing to the front cover, back cover, and spine. Published in 1991. Pages are good.
A death inside an apparently ordinary family circle brings Inspector Luke Thanet into a household strained by old grievances and unspoken fears. The evidence does not fit neatly, and each interview reveals another layer of private history that may have contributed to the crime. Dorothy Simpson balances methodical police work with close attention to relationships, domestic pressures and Thanet’s own family life. A thoughtful British mystery in which motive grows from the complicated emotions people hide at home.
