A Suitable Vengeance
fullDescription
The #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Inspector Lynley series, hailed as “queen of the mystery genre” (Entertainment Weekly), brings us back to one of Detective Inspector Thomas Lynley’s earliest—and most personal—investigations.
Don’t miss the upcoming BritBox streaming series Lynley!
“George proves that the classiest crime writers are true novelists.”—The New York Times
Thomas Lynley, the eighth earl of Asherton, has brought to Howenstow, his family home, the young woman he has asked to be his bride. But the savage murder of a local journalist is the catalyst for a lethal series of events that shatters the calm of a picturesque Cornwall village and embroils Lynley and Simon Allcourt-St. James in a case far outside their jurisdiction—and a little too close to home. When a second death follows closely on the heels of the first, Lynley finds he can’t help taking the investigation personally—because the evidence points to a killer within his own family.
