The Red Herring (Chief Inspector Woodend Mysteries)
It's one false lead after another for readers of The Red Herring by Sally Spencer and it's not easy for Chief Insp. Charlie Woodend to figure out what's going on in this well-plotted British police procedural set against the backdrop of the Cuban missile crisis. Woodend is investigating the murder of a sexy young teacher when he's called off the job to search for a missing student, but this so-called "provincial bobby" senses that the cases are connected, and that someone on the inside doesn't want them solved.Copyright 2002 Cahners Business Information, Inc.
