The Dead of Jericho

De: Colin Dexter

Narrado por: Samuel West

Winner of the CWA Silver Dagger Award, The Dead of Jericho is the fifth novel in Colin Dexter's Oxford-set Inspector Morse series.

Morse switched on the gramophone to 'play', and sought to switch his mind away from all the terrestrial troubles. Sometimes, this way, he almost managed to forget. But not tonight . . .

Anne Scott's address was scribbled on a crumpled note in the pocket of Morse's smartest suit.

He turned the corner of Canal Street, Jericho, on the afternoon of Wednesday, 3rd October.

He hadn't planned a second visit. But he was back later the same day – as the officer in charge of a suicide investigation . . .

The Dead of Jericho is followed by the sixth book in the detective series, The Riddle of the Third Mile.

Morse does it again with good narration from Samue

Morse does it again with good narration from Samuel West. Morse's analytical skills come to the fore once again, finding and solving an accidental manslaughter, that was officially deemed a suicide, while also identifying the first killer's role in the original death and solving the murder of the second victim. A well crafted effort from Colin Dexter with lots to consider as the story develops few obvious clues. A top tier effort and I look forward to the next one.
