this is the second dalziel and pascoe book. one thing i’m enjoying about this series (having read a whole three of them now ;-) ) is that each seems to have it’s own setting. it’s quite an old fashioned device to make a book so closed from the outside world but hill manages to write modern books within the constraints. the first in the series was ‘the rugby club book’ and this one was ‘the college book’. this book hooks you in with the intriguing conundrum of ‘how did her bones come to be buried beneath her memorial?’ and the story flows well but the ending is a bit of a disappointment, as it was with the first book.

(this is book 2 in the dalziel and pascoe series)
