For lovers of Brit mystery-this is one in a series about Detective Rutledge set in the World War I era-each one is "intelligent and affecting" and this one was a NY Times notable book of the year

I LOVE Charles Todd. True character building, you can read from one book to the next and never get that sinking feeling of losing a good friend at the end of a book.

Why has the village turned against this lone woman and her child to accuse her of murder? Rutledge finds he owes her a special debt and must keep her from being hanged. This tale starts with several mysteries to unravel. A lot of interesting characters figure in the unwinding of the cloth and you get to know them well. The plot concludes with bodies all over the stage and you must decide if justice has been done. Really engaging: this will keep you turning pages to the end. Don't try reading the last page first; it doesn't help! Great story!

I'm lucky to read these in order and this one was the best yet. I do agree with the reviewer who said he ends things too soon. A little more tying up of loose-ends would be good, though it makes one rush on to the next title with some urgency.

4 stars - interesting entry in this excellent, unusual, series. Inspector Ian Rutledge travels to Scotland where he must investigate a socially delicate murder while fighting his PTSD deamons.
