Rating: Summary: Don't start here Review: This book is NOT a good place to start in the Adam Dalgliesh series (although it is the first book she wrote in the series). This is my least favourite P D James book, and I suggest you read it last!
Much better to start with A Mind to Murder, Unnatural Causes or the brilliant Shroud for a Nightingale.
Rating: Summary: A book that will truly hypnotize you! Review: This story takes place in the 1960's. It is about a British family who has two maids. The main characters in the story are Sally Jupp, Mrs. Lidell, Dr. Epps, Catherine Bowers, Deborah Riscoe, Felix Hearne, Dr. Stephen Maxie, Mrs. Maxie and Martha Bultitaft. Dr. Maxie has just proposed to his housemaid, Sally Jupp. The engagement was very surprising and disapointing to all of his family and friends. Many people are even mad enough to kill Sally. Sure enough Sally is found dead the next day behind the bolted door leading to her room. Among a houseful of suspects Detective Adam Dagliesh must find her killer. Using only interviews and two minor clues see how Dagleish solves the mystery. I liked this book because of how all the characters had a huge part in how Dagliesh figured out who the killer was. And another reason why I liked this story was because I liked to see how Dagliesh uses what he already has to track down who the killer is. I really like this book and recommend it. But i do think it was more of an adult book because of the language and the vocabulary.I think this book would be appropriate for people over the age of 14. This was one of the best books I have ever read so if you see it somewhere go ahead and start reading!
Rating: Summary: murder mystery Review: when a young maid was murdered the family that she worked for are the sole suspects. this mystery was intriging, but not one of my favorites by P.D. James.....however, the characters being well intertwined made for an interesting outcome.
