Description
A Great Deliverance by Elizabeth George is a gripping mystery that exposes the dark secrets beneath a seemingly idyllic community. In this first novel of the Inspector Lynley series, Scotland Yard's Thomas Lynley and Detective Sergeant Barbara Havers investigate a savage murder in the peaceful English countryside. The victim, Roberta Teys, was found with an axe beside her father's headless corpse, her final words echoing through the scene: "I did it. And I'm not sorry." As Lynley and Havers delve into the case, they uncover a complex web of scandals and crimes that threaten to disrupt the tranquil lives of those involved. Through their investigation, Lynley and Havers are forced to confront their own secrets and the true nature of justice in this small, rural community.
