When Mr. Thomas Tapley is found bludgeoned to death in his sitting room, his neighbor Inspector Benjamin Ross of Scotland Yard is immediately summoned.

Little is known about the elusive gentleman until Mr. Jonathan Tapley, QC, hears of the news and the truth about his cousin's tragic past slowly begins to emerge. Meanwhile, Ben's wife Lizzie is convinced she saw someone following Thomas Tapley on the day he died and she discovers that he received a mysterious visitor a few days before his death.

Goodreads review by Marie-Hélène on August 09, 2019

Beaucoup de redite, c'est assez mou comme intrigue, heureusement les personnages sont assez bien écrits, mais c'est vraiment le 2è que je préfère, je ne sais pas si je vais lire le suivant ! C'est un peu ennuyeux !......more

Goodreads review by Deanne on July 05, 2013

Good read which didn't require too many brain cells, was a little annoyed that Granger would throw in a clue which had been with held in order to add a new twist, but I won't spoil it for you.......more
