Book Description:
A spinster whose passion was bird-watching, a dotty peer who pinched pennies, and a baffling murder made the tiny village of Littlebourne a most extraordinary place. And a severed finger made a ghastly clue in a killing that led local constables from a corpse to a boggy footpath to a beautiful lady's mansion.

But Richard Jury refused preferred to take the less traveled route to a slightly disreputable pub, the Anodyne Necklace. There, drinks all around loosened enough tongues to link a London mugging with the Littlebourne murder and a treasure map that would chart the way to yet another chilling crime.

One of her better ones. Creepy, and also VERY funny - I kept laughing out loud while reading it on the subway!

Part of the Richard Jury series. Martha Grimes is a wonderful writer and it is fun to follow her characters from series to series.
