Deborah and Simon St. James have taken a holiday in the wintertime scenery of Lancastershire, hoping to heal the growing rift within their marriage. But in the barren countryside awaits bleak news: The vicar of Wimslough, the man they had come to see, is certainly dead—a sufferer of unintentional poisoning. Unsatisfied using the inquest ruling and unsettled from the close association between your looking into constable and the girl who served the deadly food, Simon calls in his old friend Detective Inspector Thomas Lynley. Together they uncover dark, complicated relationships within this rural town, relationships that bring men and women together with a interest, with grief, or with the intention to kill. Peeling away coating after layer of personal background to reveal the torment of the fugitive heart, Missing Joseph is usually award-winning author Elizabeth George’s most significant achievement.
