‘Altogether an enjoyable performance, one of Mr Hill’s best’ Financial Times
When Mary Dinwoodie is found choked in a ditch following a night out with her boyfriend, a mysterious caller phones the local paper with a quotation from Hamlet. The career of the Yorkshire Choker is underway.
If Superintendent Dalziel is unimpressed by the literary phone calls, he is downright angry when Sergeant Wield calls in a clairvoyant.
Linguists, psychiatrists, mediums – it’s all a load of nonsense as far as he is concerned, designed to make a fool of him.
And meanwhile the Choker strikes again – and again...

‘These novels last, like a grand malt whisky – rounded, rich, intoxicating... Here is an author at his formidable best’
Frances Hegarty, Mail on Sunday
‘So far out in front that he need not bother looking over his shoulder’
Sunday Telegraph
Reginald Hill was brought up in Cumbria, and has returned there after many years in Yorkshire. With his first crime novel, A Clubbable Woman, he was hailed as ‘the crime novel’s best hope’ and, twenty years on, he has more than fulfilled that promise.
