A Particular Eye for Villainy (Inspector Ben Ross Mystery 4): A gripping Victorian mystery of secrets, murder and family ties

Description

When one of Ben's neighbours is bludgeoned to death in his sitting room, Ben and Lizzie discover that there is a lot more to Mr Thomas Tapley than meets the eye - and more than one person who would benefit from his death...

Ann Granger has lived in cities all over the world, since for many years she worked for the Foreign Office and received postings to British embassies as far apart as Munich and Lusaka. She is married, with two sons, and she and her husband, who also worked for the Foreign Office, are now permanently based in Oxfordshire.

Praise for Ann Granger's previous crime novels: 'Characterisation, as ever with Granger, is sharp and astringent' * The Times * 'The plot is neat and ingenious, the characters rounded and touchingly credible, and the writing of this darkly humorous but humane and generous novel fluent, supple and a pleasure to read' * Ham and High * 'The reader can expect a treat. Lively, different and fun' * Yorkshire Post * 'Ann Granger's skill with character together with her sprightly writing make the most of the story....she is on to another winner' * Birmingham Post * 'One of crime fiction's most engaging heroines' * Yorkshire Post *
