I thought it was a good story which starts out with the shooting through her kitchen window of Rachel James whilst she is getting ready for work. The real stand out for me was the character of Sir Clixby Bream who is very appropriately named, is so creepy (I also have in my head the image of Richard Briers who portrayed him in the TV series so brilliantly). I do take issue with Morse taking it upon himself to get a burglar to break into a suspect's house to have a look around for him and he steals a clock the burglar that is not Morse! We also discover Morse's first name!
This is my first time reading Inspector Morse, and I loved everything about it! The writing is stellar, and Morse is an intriguing and interesting character.
I swear the series just gets better as it hurtles (with ever more ominous foreshadowing) towards its close. This one is particularly full of satisfying red herrings, thoughtfully provided clues, detailed characterization, and rage against systematized misogyny. Also, the relationship between Morse and Lewis is further explored and deepened, which is always a pleasure.
