Resumen del Editor

On Lansdown Hill, near Bath, England, a battle between Roundheads and Cavaliers that took place over 350 years ago is annually reenacted. Two of the reenactors discover a skeleton that is female, headless, and only about twenty years old. One of them, a professor who played a Cavalier, is later found murdered. In the course of his investigation, Peter Diamond butts heads with the group of vigilantes who call themselves the Lansdown Society, discovering in the process that his boss Georgina is a member. She resolves to sideline Diamond, but matters don't pan out in accordance with her plans.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Diamond remains one of the most realistic and human of fictional sleuths....While some readers will anticipate the solution with little trouble, sharp prose and characterization make this another winner in this enduring series." ( Publishers Weekly)

Good police work!

Much of this edition of the Diamond series depends on one’s appreciation for Peter Diamond and his prowess as an inspector.
If you love the series, you’ll enjoy this one.

Wonderful

This story pulls the reader in from the beginning. The characters are great and so are the twists in the stories. I love each of the Diamond stories!!!!

Another complex story

I love the twists and turns these mysteries always have. I love the fact that finding the motive takes work. Looking forward to the next book already

Love this series

What can I say that I haven’t said before: amazingly well written, well thought out plot that keeps you guessing til the end, and a main character who is nothing like the folks in the book thinks he is. I almost didn’t continue this series when one of the main characters I identified with and liked was killed off. Now I grudgingly admit to being glad I did.

A little slow and boring but I love the characters

The story itself was slow and not that interesting until maybe the end. I love the characters. The narrator does a good job with the leading character, but not so well with women voices, but it was acceptable. All in all I enjoyed it, but I will read what the plot is for my next novel to decide if I’m going to listen to it or not.

maybe the best of the series

This is my third or fourth read in the series, and it's maybe the best. Strong 4 stars, maybe 4.5.

A bit dull

I got bored with this one. Having it all wrapped up in the last 30 mins having figured it out half way through made it a bit dull. I do still intend to follow the series since most are well done. Excellent narration.
