"Chew on this," says Melrose Plant to Richard Jury, who's in the hospital being driven crazy by Hannibal, a nurse who likes to speculate on his chances for survival. Jury could use a good story, preferably one not ending with his own demise.
Plant tells Jury of something he overheard in The Grave Maurice, a pub near the hospital. A woman told an intriguing story about a girl named Nell Ryder, granddaughter to the owner of the Ryder Stud Farm in Cambridgeshire, who went missing more than a year before and has never been found. What is especially interesting to Plant is that Nell is also the daughter of Jury's surgeon.
But Nell's disappearance isn't the only mystery at the Ryder farm. A woman has been found dead on the track - a woman who was a stranger even to the Ryders.
But not to Plant. She's the woman he saw in The Grave Maurice. Together with Jury, Nell's family, and the Cambridgeshire police, Plant embarks on a search to find Nell and bring her home. But is there more to their mission than just restoring a 15-year-old girl to her family?
The Grave Maurice is the 18th entry in the Richard Jury series and, from its pastoral opening to its calamitous end, is full of the same suspense and humor that devoted listeners expect from Martha Grimes.

Grimes books are addictive and take you through the whole emotional spectrum. She also does phenomenal research so I end up learning about a vast array of subjects throughout the series . This book did not end as I hoped but I loved it .
Steve West is the absolute best narrator. If he stopped narrating the series, the audible version would be ruined . He has personalized all the characters to the point you feel you are there .
If you want to read a Grimes book, start from book #1.
As always , a book I could not stop listening to.

By chapter 13 I'd had enough of listening to the detailed mistreatment of animals.
Lesson learnt; I'll check ALL the reviews for future purchases.

Any additional comments?
Some entertaining banter between the main characters if a little too blase. A good basic plot and/but she blithely kills off more characters than is necessary or realistic for a good story.Kills off too many characters
