Three Inspector Wexford Mysteries:
'The Best Man To Die'. Jack Pertwee was getting married in the morning, and his best friend Charlie Hatton drove his lorry down from Leeds just to be there. A few hours later Charlie was found dead after he and Jack had gone for a late-night stroll. For Detective Chief Inspector Wexford it was to become a murder investigation fraught with coincidences. . .
'An Unkindness of Ravens'. Detective Chief Inspector Wexford thought he was doing a neighbourly good deed when he agreed to talk to Joy Williams about her missing husband. He certainly didn't expect to be investigating a most unusual homicide . . .
'The Veiled One'. The woman's body lay in the subterranean car park between a silver Escort and a dark-blue Lancia. Concealed by a shroud of dirty brown velvet, it looked like a heap of rags. It was Inspector Burden who called Wexford at home that evening with the grim news that the victim had been brutally strangled . . .
