Publisher's Summary
The trail leads directly to a staircase in Wolsey College and in particular to a former "scout" there, one Edward Brooks, who disappears following the theft of a knife from the Pitt Rivers Museum. Then another body is discovered, and suddenly Morse finds himself with too many suspects and yet no solution. Then he receives a letter, a letter containing a declaration of love.

What the Critics Say
"Colin Dexter's Inspector Morse has become a favorite of mystery fans in both hemispheres. In each book, Dexter shows a new facet of the complex Morse. In this latest work, Morse must solve two related murders, a problem complicated by a plethora of suspects and by his attraction to one of the possible killers." (Amazon.com)

"A different Morse"
I had previously met Inspector Morse only on the BBC TV adaptations of Colin Dexter's books. The full book reveals a much more complex character. Don't be put off by the voice of the reader: you will soon acclimate to him, and then realize that he is, in fact, just the right reader for these books.
Just make sure that you have a l-o-n-g car journey ahead of you, because you won't want to stop until the book is over.5 of 5 people found this review helpful -

What aspect of Frederick Davidson???s performance would you have changed?he is spot-on
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?NA

"Not as good as I had hoped"
I like the narrator, but perhaps not for this story. For some reason, the narrator made the story choppy and the listening wouldn't flow well for me. I listen to alot of audio books, and I listen to the samples before I buy. I liked the sample enough to use a credit on this book, but I am a bit disappointed. I wish there were more Colin Dexter books, but perhaps with a different narrator.

"one of my favorite dexters"
i was a little put off by the narrator when listening to the sample. i was irritated by his rather highbrow accent and was afraid it would spoil a book i already know so well. but i love these books and really wanted some audio inspector morse, so i gave this and the other unabridged book, the way through the woods, a try. i am glad i did. i will listen again and again to these through the years.
