This mystery is pure entertainment as we follow Inspector Wexford on his quest to solve the murder of a young woman. Red herrings abound but you won't know "Who done it" until the very end.

Rendell begins by introducing Inspector Wexford in the uncharateristic role of a convalescent. His dry humor is evidenced by his lack of sincere appreciation of his caregivers. There is a recurring motif that begins early on as they bundle him up for a walk to visit the statue of Sir Thomas More. The Book title comes from More's "Utopia".
