Maggiori informazioni sul libro
In this entry of the series, Yorkshire's Superintendent Andy Dalziel and Inspector Peter Pascoe play significant roles, but the focus shifts to a captivating cast of women. Peter's wife, Ellie, deeply affected by their daughter's near-death experience, finds solace in writing a novel about the Greeks and Trojans, where her Odysseus resembles Dalziel. However, her creative respite is disrupted when she narrowly escapes a kidnapping attempt by a slick couple in a white Mercedes. Meanwhile, neighbor Daphne Aldermann faces her own crisis when she confronts an intruder outside the Pascoe home and suffers a brutal attack. Other notable female characters include the resilient Constable Shirley Novello, who, despite her initial dislike for Ellie, volunteers to protect her; elderly activist Feenie Macallum; and con artist Kelly Cornelius, connected to IRA gun runners and Colombian drug dealers. Together, these women devise a powerful and dangerous plan for revenge against the threats they face. Reginald Hill skillfully captures their struggles and resilience, showcasing that the boundaries of mystery are limitless.
