Description
Review
?She is an addictive writer. P.D. James takes her place in the long line of those moralists who tell a story as satisfying as it is complete.? -- Anita Brookner
?P.D. James is one of the national treasures of British fiction. As James takes us from one life to another, her near-Dickensian scale becomes apparent.? -- Malcolm Bradbury, Mail on Sunday
?Great and powerful writing.? -- The Globe and Mail
Book Description
When the administrative head of the Steen Psychiatric Clinic is found dead with a chisel in her heart, Superintendent Adam Dalgliesh of Scotland Yard is called in to investigate. Dalgliesh must analyze the deep-seated anxieties and thwarted desires of patients and staff alike to determine which of their unresolved conflicts resulted in murder.
With "discernment, depth, and craftsmanship," wrote the Chicago Daily News, A Mind to Murder "is a superbly satisfying mystery." --This text refers to the
