George Gently begins with a baffling provincial murder
Good Condition - light cover and edge wear with page tanning and scattered internal foxing visible on the photographed end pages.
When a prominent local figure is murdered, suspicion quickly falls on the victim’s troubled son. Chief Inspector George Gently is not convinced by the obvious answer. In a town shaped by status, fear and long memory, he quietly tests alibis and motives while resisting pressure for a swift arrest. The first Inspector Gently case establishes a thoughtful detective whose patience and understanding of people prove as important as physical evidence.
