The new Dalziel and Pascoe novel to delight and thrill Reginald Hill fans.

Some say that Andy Dalziel wasn’t ready for God, others that God wasn’t ready for Dalziel. Either way, despite his recent proximity to a terrorist blast in Death Comes for the Fat Man, the Superintendent remains firmly of this world. And, while Death may be the cure for all diseases, Dalziel is happy to settle for a few weeks’ care under a tender nurse.

Convalescing in Sandytown, a quiet seaside resort devoted to healing, Dalziel befriends Charlotte Heywood, a fellow newcomer and psychologist, who is researching the benefits of alternative therapy. With much in common, the two soon find themselves in partnership when trouble comes to town.

Sandytown’s principal landowners have grandiose plans for the resort–none of which they can agree on. One of them has to go, and when one of them does, in spectacularly gruesome fashion, DCI Peter Pascoe is called in to investigate–with Dalziel and Charlotte providing unwelcome support. But Pascoe finds dark forces at work in a place where medicine and holistic remedies are no match for the oldest cure of all . . .

Review:

Praise for The Death of Dalziel:

'As usual, Hill is unputdownable' Daily Express

'Fans will not feel cheated... hugely enjoyable to read. God – and Allah – forbid he should think of killing off Pascoe' Evening Standard

'Hill is always clever and funny... he demands intense concentration – because he's worth it' Literary Review

'Hill is a masterful writer, quirky and intelligent, and his characters are drawn with a depth rare in crime fiction. And astonishingly, 21 books into the Dalziel and Pascoe saga, I have yet to feel he's repeating himself' The Times

'His energy, wit and erudition are astonishing... he can still see off most of his rivals' Daily Telegraph

'Hill at his best is a masterly storyteller, and he is at his best here... he always handles the big action scenes with authority and perfect timing... addictive...brilliant' Spectator

'Hill keeps us in suspense throughout the entire book... it's a gripping read which displays Hill's brilliant characterization and dialogue and his skilful plot structure' Sunday Telegraph

Review:
`A characteristically funny, perceptive and deftly plotted tale'
