All Roads Leadeth (Severn House Large Print)
Francis Armstrong has just bought a house in Yorkshire and is clearing the yard when he makes a grisly discovery: a human skull buried beneath a pile of rubble. The remains are identified as those of Muriel Bradbury, wife of the house's former owner. Mrs. Bradbury was reported missing nearly 20 years earlier, and although her husband was suspected of killing her, he was never charged. Shortly after his wife's disappearance, Bradbury married his young secretary, although the marriage didn't last. Yorkshire detectives Hennessy and Yellich take the case, but their initial certainty that Bradbury killed his wife evaporates when they learn that two other wives also disappeared shortly before their husbands took up with a woman whose description matches Bradbury's second wife, Sandra Picardie. The latest entry in Turnbull's popular series is one of the best yet and will please readers who like intelligent detectives and atmospheric British settings.Emily MeltonCopyright © American Library Association.
