A Sudden, Fearful Death by Anne Perry

4.0

Prudence Barrymore, a Crimean nurse, is found strangled and stuffed down the laundry chute of a local hospital. Monk is hired to investigate the crime, which is being ably adjudicated by the barrister Oliver Rathbone. I enjoy Monk as a character immensely. Perry uses her character's amnesia to delve into many issues such as regrets, who we are versus what people think we are, and relationships. I am also savoring the developing attachment between Monk and Hester.
