Description

Altogether an enjoyable performance, one of Mr Hills best Financial Times
When Mary Dinwoodie is found choked in a ditch following a night out with her boyfriend, a mysterious caller phones the local paper with a quotation from Hamlet. The career of the Yorkshire Choker is underway.

If Superintendent Dalziel is unimpressed by the literary phone calls, he is downright angry when Sergeant Wield calls in a clairvoyant.

Linguists, psychiatrists, mediums its all a load of nonsense as far as he is concerned, designed to make a fool of him.

And meanwhile the Choker strikes again and again

Reviews

The Times

These novels last, like a grand malt whisky rounded, rich, intoxicating Here is an author at his formidable best
Frances Hegarty, Mail on Sunday

So far out in front that he need not bother looking over his shoulder

Author Bio

Reginald Hill was brought up in Cumbria, and has returned there after many years in Yorkshire. With his first crime novel, A Clubbable Woman, he was hailed as the crime novels best hope and thirty years on he has more than fulfilled that prophecy.
