Product Description

Review
"Spencer offers up a cracking good British police procedural with a plot that's darker than her usual fare and a maverick cop in the John Rebus mold who, despite his flaws and a career that endlessly teeters on the brink of disaster, is as likable as anyone in the genre" Booklist on Death Watch "A top-notch British police procedural that belongs in all mystery collections worth their salt" Booklist on Dangerous Games "A solid, well-plotted British procedural that will entertain both fans of this fine series and procedural addicts in general" Booklist on Sins of the Fathers"

Product Description
A charred body is discovered in an abandoned cotton mill, and the crime scene presents DCI Woodend and his team with many questions, but very few answers.Who would want to murder a harmless old tramp, a man with no friends - or enemies - in the world? And why, of all the methods he could have chosen, did the killer decide to cruelly burn his victim to death?As Woodend attempts to solve a murder with no clues, he must also battle against a police authority which is attempting to block him at every turn. And though he does not know it, worse is to follow, because Elizabeth Driver, Inspector Bob Rutter's lover, has almost finished the book which could destroy both his career and everything he has ever worked for.

5.0 out of 5 stars Is DCI' Woodend feeling the strain?, 18 Feb 2008
By Martin A. Chambers (U.K.) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Dying Fall is well up to the normal standard one has become to expect from Sally Spencer. This is an intriguing police procedural which continues the cases of the likable DCI Charlie Woodend and his team. It has a tight plot line with some deft touches of wry humour. The plot nevertheless from time to time dips into the black and beyond which allows the reader to search into the characters of its cast. Occasionally I was tempted to pause my reading so as to delay what I suspected might happen, and any book which can achieve this must be well written. The story involves some apparently motiveless killings of a particularly gruesome nature which are coupled with political intrigue. The dénouement is fulfilling but sad as if what I suspect is to happen before long actually occurs it will be a great loss. As usual with Sally Spencer's books I recommend it wholeheartedly.
