WINNER OF THE CRIME WRITERS’ ASSOCIATION DIAMOND DAGGER AWARD 2017
Ann Cleeves Classic Crime – engaging mysteries to savour, beloved characters to meet again.
A Lesson in Dying is the first novel in the Inspector Ramsay series by Ann Cleeves, author of the Shetland and Vera Stanhope crime series.
Who hanged the headmaster in the playground on the night of the school Hallowe’en Party?
Almost everyone in Heppleburn either hated or feared the viper-tongued Harold Medburn. Inspector Ramsay is convinced it was the headmaster’s enigmatic wife but Jack Robson, school governor and caretaker, is determined to prove her innocence.
With the help of his restless enthusiastic daughter, Patty, Jack digs into the secrets of Heppleburn, and uncovers a cesspit – of lies, adultery, blackmail and madness.
