Description

Hills wit is the constant, ironic foil to his vision, and to call this a mere crime novel is to say Everest is a nice little hill Frances Hegarty, Mail on Sunday
When animal-rights activists uncover a long-dead uniformed body in the grounds of Wanwood House, a research facility, Dalziel is presented with a seemingly insoluble mystery. And he is further perplexed when hes attracted to one of the campaigners now implicated in a murderous assault.

Meanwhile, the death of his grandmother has led Peter Pascoe to the battlefields of World War 1 and the enigma of who his grandfather was and why he had to die.
