An excellent read, Jun 2 1998
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Written in Blood (Paperback)
Graham combines sly humor with scenes of heartrending pathos in this expertly written, multilayered novel. The characters are sensitively and/or wittily drawn, not least of which is the self-important, inept Sergeant Troy. The interaction between this would-be storm trooper and his level-headed superior, Inspector Barnaby, is endlessly amusing. At the same time, I found the ending to be the most moving of any mystery novel I've ever read. Caroline Graham is a very good writer indeed, and one hopes that she will soon be publishing another book in the Inspector Barnaby series.

Another classic from the best living writer of English mysteries, Jan 2 2007

Caroline Graham has never let me down. I'd put this book right up alongside "The Killings at Badgers Drift" as the best of a brilliant series. A reviewer thinks the loathsome Brian got too much print, but I loved every word of it. I've known men like him and I just knew he was going to get his in the end, and what a beautiful ending it is. It's hard to recommend one Graham mystery over another but don't miss this one.

Written In Blood, April 18 2001
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Written in Blood (Paperback)
I have loved Caroline Graham's books for some time now and I think this is her best. The characters are expertly drawn; Graham has a way of making you feel as if you are in amongst them and yet watching from a safe distance. The roller coaster ending was a complete surprise to me and I highly recommend this book to mystery readers.
