4.0 out of 5 stars A good whodunit, 17 Mar 2004
By Philippe Horak (Zug, Switzerland) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: A Scandal in Belgravia (Hardcover)
Peter Proctor, a retired Member of Parliament, is attempting to write his memoirs but he is constantly plagued by what is known to be the "writer's block". Very soon, Peter realises that his block is due to the fact that his mind is constantly distracted by what happened thirty years before when he was active with the Foreign Office. At that time, he used to work together with a young aristocrat called Timothy Wycliffe. Tim lived in an elegantly furnished apartment in Belgravia until he was savagely murdered by a person or persons unknown. Thirty years later, Peter can't accept that Timothy was allegedly beaten to death by one of his boyfriends. And so begins a fast-paced enquiry, as Peter tries to unveil the truth that lies behind this mysterious murder.
Mr Barnard's novel, beside being a witty and extremely well constructed mystery, gives the reader a fascinating view of British society in the 1950s and its changing as well as unchanging moves since.
