This review is from: The night lords (Paperback)

Inspector Castang was overtired and wanted nothing more to retire home to his wife Vera's cooking and a good night's sleep. The absolute last thing he needed was for a nude female corpse to show up in the boot of a Rolls-Royce belonging to a British VIP.

I have to admit to generally being partial to Freeling's Van Der Valk books, but _The Night Lords_ is everything a mystery should be. The characters are vivid and detailed, there's a great deal of rich local scenery, and the plot doesn't disappoint in terms of either mystery or police procedure. A definite read for Freeling fans and not a bad place to begin if you're new to the Castang books.
