DescriptionThat a man who caught murderers should be a successful poet seemed inappropriate to some people. But Superintendent Adam Dalgliesh of the Criminal Investigation Department was attending his publishers' annual sherry party when a call from Scotland Yard whipped him away to investigate a particularly brutal murder.
