4.0 out of 5 stars Engrossing Read, March 6, 2007

This review is from: Wycliffe and the Four Jacks (Wycliffe Series) (Paperback)

Cleverly plotted British police procedural, with a nice sense of place - Cornwall. Our copper - a Superintendant, actually - is somewhat standard issue, highly analytical, a bit dour and a bit of a loner. The other characters run the gamut, from a bright and independent, but supportive, wife to a Brunnhilde-like jewelry-maker and fortune-teller. In short, a highly enjoyable and very quick read which is unlikely to linger in the memory.
