A Great Deliverance: Introducing Lynley and Havers to the world

Date of Review:  Jul 3, 2002
The Bottom Line: A bit too much of too much for a first novel, but still a good story, with plenty of depth and twists.
Review: Usually, I don't read thrillers, staying mostly on a comfortable track between science fiction and suchlike. After being recommended this series several times by various people, I finally settled down into giving it a good read -- but my big mistake...

Date of Review:  Jan 5, 2000
Review: This first novel in Ms. George's English Inspector Lynley/Sgt. Havers series is truly a grand introduction to this stunning series. What makes these mysteries so powerful so far is that it isn't so much WHO dun-it as WHY? This book has no huge twist...
