Synopsis
It is barely three months since the murder of his wife and Thomas Lynley has taken to the South- West Coast Path in Cornwall,
determined to walk its length in an attempt to recover from his loss. On the forty-third day of this walk, he spies a body on the beach - a young cliff climber has suffered a fatal fall. The nearest house to the death site belongs to a woman veterinarian from Bristol, and this proximity makes her an automatic suspect, particularly as she seems to have no personal history before her thirteenth year. The case brings Barbara Havers from London and thrusts both detectives into the rugged beauty of out-of-season Cornwall, with its community of surfers and hoteliers. But the wild landscape is the scene of jealousy, betrayal and revenge, and Lynley and Havers must sift through all these human emotions in their search for the killer.
Careless in Red marks the welcome return of Scotland Yard's Detective Inspector Thomas Lynley in a compelling and satisfying crime drama, which is also a moving exploration of grief, and a perceptive look at the fraught and complex relationship between parents and their children. Bestselling author Elizabeth George once again displays her mastery of the psychology of the human heart.
