A great new find!

I had never heard of June Thomson before I picked up a slimpaperback called "The Long Revenge" but the blurb on the back intrigued me, and I was not disappointed. So many questionswaiting to be answered - mainly, who was it planning revenge after a 30-year wait? Why wait so long? What form would the revenge take? Will there be anyone still alive in the small French village able to shed light on a World War II incident? How can a potential murdered slip unnoticed into a small English village where everyone knows everyone? This was a book difficult to put down, and it has led me to more June Thomson books. I liked Inspector Rudd's quiet patience and perseverance, and he comes unencumbered with family problems to distract the reader from the main quest.Ms. Thomson's books were written awhile ago, but stand thetest of time for readers who enjoy English police proceduralsset in small villages and featuring the inevitable pubs! I amnow deep into another Thomson book, "Case Closed" which is alsoholding my attention. Definitely a writer to be investigated!
