Death of a very unpleasant lady! It's always gratifying when the murdered victim totally deserves it, and Lemarchand was mostly pretty good at that.

A friend of mine has carried this book with her for many years. It has an address label from a place she lived before I met her. She is trying to get rid of some books and this was one of them. I was curious about why a reader would carry this book around for more than a decade.
Well, now I know. Lemarchand has created a character, Pollard, who reminds me of Luke Thanet and Inspector Lynley. The mysteries are good, but the characters are intriguing. Not only do you learn about these men's professional successes, but their family and friends are also important. I like series like this one about Detective Superintendent Pollard.
I don't know how many of Lemarchand's novels my friend once had. She gave the library four and I plan to read those four before sending them on to the next reader. Serendipity is a wonderful thing. I doubt I would have ever read a book by this author without my friend donating her books to my library.
