Payment in Blood (1989) Elizabeth George
Once again, Thomas Lynley is called from vacation to deal with a murder. And once again Barbara Havers is to be his partner.
As the subject of their investigation the upper class to which Lynley belongs, he feels that Havers may cause more problems that she might help him solve, however they are assigned the case, and off to the Scottish Highlands they go.
Joy Sinclair has composed a new play to celebrate the restoration of the Agincourt Theater, as well as the revival of Joanna Ellacourt. However, Joy’s revisions to the play lead to a terrible argument, and since this is a mystery, to murder.
The nasty surprise for Lyndley is that his long time friend Lady Helen is also with the group–as a guest of Rhys Davies-Jones.
Rating: 7/10
