Faber & Faber A Mind To Murder : The Classic Locked-Room Murder Mystery From The 'Queen Of English Crime' (Guardian)

THE PERFECT INTRODUCTION TO THE MULTIMILLION-COPY BESTSELLING ADAM DALGLIESH SERIES FROM THE 'QUEEN OF ENGLISH CRIME' (GUARDIAN)'A legend.' VAL MCDERMID'P.D. James took the classic crime novel and turned up the dial.' MICK HERRON'One of those books you want to keep forever.' 5* reader reviewAdam Dalgliesh has never failed to solve a case - yet. When the body of a woman is discovered at the Steen Psychiatric Clinic with a chisel through her heart, it seems to Dalgliesh a straightforward enough case: the building was locked, and no-one has been able to enter or leave since the murder.Logically, the killer must be one of the shocked group waiting to meet him. But Dalgliesh quickly discovers an intricate web of lies and grudges among both patients and staff which threatens to derail the investigation. And as he works to uncover the truth, the murderer is preparing to strike again . . . __________________________________________________________________________________'The writing is as sharp as a hypodermic.'
