About
The first book in the British police procedural series, the basis for the long-running BBC series featuring the Yorkshire detective duo.
Mary Connon froze out her husband, Sam, long ago. She likes the attention of other men, like the fellow members of Sam's rugby club. Naturally, when she's found dead in her sitting room with a hole in her head, Sam is a suspect. If only he hadn't suffered a dizzying scrum injury that's left everything a blur. He isn't sure that he didn't kill her. But Det. Inspector Andrew Dalziel and his partner, Peter Pascoe, are looking outside the unhappy home. Because it seems everyone within spitting distance of the suburban femme fatale, from prying neighbors to spurned lovers to jealous wives, wanted Mary dead. As the field of play expands, so do the motives...
