Lambert and Hook Mysteries Books 1-8
By J. M. Gregson
EIGHT BRITISH MURDER MYSTERIES SET IN THE STUNNING COTSWOLD HILLS.
Perfect for fans of Stella Cameron, Rebecca Tope, L.J. Ross, Joy Ellis, M.C. Beaton or Faith Martin.
THE DETECTIVES
Superintendent John Lambert has a lifetime of experience under his belt, but his policeman’s instincts are still sharp and unshakeable. Detective Sergeant Bert Hook’s congenial village bobby exterior conceals a shrewd and active brain.
THE SETTING
Pretty Cotswold villages are connected by hawthorn-edged lanes and separated by the River Severn, which traces its route through farmlands and cathedral cities. And all manner of things gets trapped here by the low-hanging boughs of willows . . . including dead bodies.
FROM BOOK 1: MURDER AT THE NINETEENTH
Superintendent John Lambert receives a frantic call from his golf club’s Chairman, asking to meet. Lambert arrives to find the clubhouse in darkness — and the Chairman’s body lying on the floor. A bloodstained knife protruding from his chest. Among the Club Committee, Lambert identifies five suspects with five motives, five solid alibis, and not a single shred of remorse. Lambert and Hook must find out which one is lying.
