The case of a murder & a linked suicide is closed.But Banks is not satisfied.He is convinced he is dealing with a murder & a suicide that is a result of Shakespeare‘s Othello-like manipulations by Wyman,an English HS teacher.Currently the teacher voluntarily directs plays at a local amateur theatre.But a local theatre works man is seeking funding to transform the theatre into a ⬇️

kspenmoll ⬆️ professional one, with him at the helm. Wyman is furious;he loves his position. What follows is an off duty investigation by Banks who suspects Wyman is indirectly, but not lawfully, the case of this murder/suicide case.Meanwhile,Cabbot is back in the same station.Although she is involved in solving her own murder case,she becomes involved in Banks‘ case.As always,music,literary text, & craft beer are intertwined in Banks‘ story. #catsoflitsy (edited) 1w

This series has constant allusions, mentioning of novels, poetry, eclectic music which has led me to new discoveries. It‘s an added bonus to the understanding/enjoyment of DCI Banks, his moods, his emotional/spiritual life, his connections to his sense of” home”. Helen Keller is an enduring gift to us all. Hoping to start this tonight.

kspenmoll @AllDebooks it‘s different from her other books which I actually enjoyed and quite a group of unique characters and/group of women living together. Dynamics fascinating too. 2mo

Another creative,wildly imaginative,plot.What struck me with this # 14 in the series was the author‘s in-depth character development of a possible suspect,the deeply troubled Mark Siddons.The descriptions of his inner psyche,emotional,& social background present possible motivations for his behaviors & in effect,created my sympathy for him. Centered around suspicious fires that resulted in murders, & art forgery,making a compelling read.

TheSpineView Fantastic!🤩📖📚 2mo
Andrew65 A wonderful series, well done🎉🎉🎉 2mo

Another stunner in this series. Morally complex, expertly plotted, riveting – a tale of elusive evil.
