You know the man, don't you? Without any description, you have a picture in your mind. Then there’s Giles Hyde-Ridley who has done much to advance the careers of many young women in his chambers. Not that this was anything other than altruism, obviously. He took an interest in Becca Decker-Hamilton. So did Tom Barton and I couldn’t help but worry that she could eat him for breakfast. Tom’s the sort of man whom I often thought of as ‘’poor Tom’’: he’s a splendid creation of Keeley’s. I worried that he was getting into dangerous situations and he’s stayed with me long after I turned the final page.
The location is perfectly evoked: it felt very real but it’s the plot you’d like to know about, isn't it? Well, I had someone pencilled in as the murdered murderer and I was about to complain that the case had been made far too easy for me. Then everything changed and made perfect sense. All the clues were there.
It’s a short read: I finished ‘’Death at Friar’s Inn’’ in one sitting. It would be perfect for a train journey or an indulgent evening at home and I’d like to thank the publishers for sending a copy to the Bookbag.
As I read, I was pleasantly put in mind of [[Death at the President's Lodging by Michael Innes]].
