Inspector Rudd dismisses the obvious once again.

Martin Holt has visited his father Rex and things have not gone well, he leaves with an atmosphere of antagonism between father and son. However, Rex relents and send his son a handsome cheque. That same night Rex is murdered, and Martin is the chiefsuspect especially by the village grapevine. Inspector Rudd agrees that it looks likely, opportunity and motive are obvious -perhaps too obvious.Nonetheless, he keeps an open mind - much to his assistant's disgust: Sgt Boyce has made up his mind. Their relationship is not as warm as that of some other detective teams, and the sgtcan be very stubborn; at the same time, Rudd is brooding over hisown obsession with a female police surgeon. A light mystery,no blood and gore, easy to read in 2 days, I enjoy June Thomson'sbooks - which are not widely known in the States. "The LongRevenge" was particularly good, I thought.
