Product Details


Product Description

Product Description

The sweet countenance of Reason greeted Morse serenely when he woke, and told him that it would be no bad idea to have a quiet look at the problem itself before galloping off to a solution. Chief Inspector Morse was alone among the congregation in suspecting continued unrest in the quiet parish of St Frideswide’s. Most people could still remember the churchwarden’s murder. A few could still recall the murderer’s suicide. Now even the police had closed the case. Until a chance meeting among the tombstones reveals startling new evidence of a conspiracy to deceive . . .


Ingram

Something sinister is happening at St. Fridewide's in Oxford. Can it be that the famous church is cursed? Another Inspector Morse mystery. Ties in to the six-episode PBS Mystery! series beginning in February.

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent mystery!, Jan 24 2002
By John D. Costanzo "johndc" (Bensalem, PA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This was my first trip into the world of Inspector Morse, and I am happy to say that it was well worth it. I can see how Morse has become one of the most beloved crime solvers in the genre.

There are plenty of plot twists and several suspects in this case, and you need to pay attention. But Dexter is a fine writer and although you may sometimes feel puzzled, you are never confused. The story moves along at a perfect pace and is brought skillfully to a satisfying conclusion.

It was a wonderful mystery novel and I am looking forward to reading about the further exploits of Inspector Morse.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not the Worst Dexter, Jul 20 2001
By Elizabeth Bronzino "Sensa" (Brooklyn, NY United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
...but not the best. Last Bus To Woodstock is the best Morse novel, and the later ones pale in comparison. I liked this, especially better than The Secret of Annex 3, but it still doesn't have all the twists and turns of the first.

To sum up, if you've read the first, then go for this one; it won't disappoint. If you've read all but this and the last novel, by all means read this one, you'll still be content. But if you're a looking for a new mystery novelist, go for Last Bus To Woodstock.

5.0 out of 5 stars An Intricate and Entertaining Tale, Jul 23 1999
By A Customer
Two murders connected to a church lead Morse and Lewis into a complex series of clues and characters -- especially as more deaths occur...Morse keeps us mystified until the very end...Colin Dexter is a true genius.
