3.0 out of 5 stars Great tale about a notorious WWII murder case, 24 May 2006
This review is from: Rough Cider (Soho Crime) (Paperback)
Sometimes revisiting childhood memories can be dangerous. Peter Lovesey opens his well-plotted mystery with one of the most harrowing first lines: "When I was nine, I fell in love with a girl of twenty named Barabara, who killed herself." Now much older and teaching at Reading University, Theo Sinclair is hounded by Alice Ashenfelter, a young woman who wants to know more about her father, the American G.I. convicted of murder in 1944. Theo tells her about the tragic events that unfolded on the Cider Farm leading to the discovery of a human skull in a cider barrel. Alice points out several things that lead Theo to question his memory and his testimony in the trial that convicted and sentenced her father to death. Together they embark on a journey back to the Cider Farm to uncover the truth. Lovesey's tale is short yet compelling. The discovery of the skeleton was perhaps the most intriguing part of the story. I was also impressed with the unique voice of the narrator. By the end, I wasn't sure I even liked the arrogant Englishman.
