But when a third indisputable murder takes place, Dalziel and Pascoe find themselves playing a game no-one knows the rules of, against an opponent known only as the Wordman.Newest Review: ...

And then a second manuscript arrives - this time including personal details about a bazouki player and his 'accidental' death in a motorbike crash. Dalziel's long-term partner in crime-solving, Chief Inspector Peter Pascoe gets an unpleasant surprise when he unexpectedly bumps into an old acquaintance called Franny Roote (who he put inside some years earlier) and immediately has a prime suspect.

Strong Central Character, Well described locations, well plotted 
Slightly Weak Ending Well plotted and written, evocative of the period and the traditional genre Three part structure caused the story to stall slightly Well argued case, easy to read book No clear alternative Didn't cost much, The cover looks pretty good. Plot progresses poorly, Three narrators makes for messy reading. Well researched gritty, gripping novel.
