From Publishers Weekly "In Inspector Richard Jury s 10th appearance, the rewards of Grimes s skewering eye for characterization more than make up for the few occasions when the complicated plot gets out of hand." Jury, perversely winter-vacationing in Yorkshire, witnesses a murder. PW called this "another tour de force for Grimes." Copyright 1990 Reed Business Information, Inc. From AudioFile Set in West Yorkshire and Cornwall, this story challenges Martha Grimes s major character, Superintendent Richard Jury, to find out the real reason that a perfectly sane and patient wife should murder her husband ten years after their only child has been kidnapped and presumably killed. The abridgment, written by Jill Ellyn Riley, provides a smooth narrative flow without any obvious gaps or lapses and with more than a few touches of characterization and byplay not always found in abridgments. Tim Curry s narration is consistent and expressive: he handles character voicing well but has some trouble with Yorkshire and Baltimore accents. T.T.B.
