Description
Swing, Swing Together is the seventh Sergeant Cribb mystery by Peter Lovesey. In 1889, London's rowing craze reaches its peak, with Jerome K Jerome's Three Men in a Boat becoming a sensation. When an elementary school teacher witnesses a body being dumped into the Thames, Sergeant Cribb and Constable Thackerey are tasked with investigating. As they delve deeper into the case, they uncover strange parallels between their inquiry and the popular novel of the time. Despite initial skepticism from their superiors, the duo follows their instincts, tracing the trail upstream to Oxford. Their persistence ultimately leads them to a surprising solution. This gripping mystery weaves together historical detail with a compelling whodunit plot, keeping readers engaged until the very end.
