Story
A wrecking ball crashes through the roof of a terraced cottage in Bath and exposes a skeleton in 18th-century clothes. Can these possibly be the remains of Beau Nash, the so-called King of Bath, whose body is said to have ended up in a pauper's grave? Peter Diamond, the city's most experienced detective, is ordered to investigate, but grappling with historical events causes ructions in his team until everyone is diverted by a modern killing during a fireworks display on the Royal Crescent lawn.

On a cold winter's morning, the body of a young boy is discovered in Epping Forest.

It is a murder as carefully planned as it is brutal, and there's one person DI Bishop needs back on his team to help solve such a calculated crime. Holly Wakefield, clinical psychologist for the Met Police, is better than anyone Bishop knows at getting inside the brains of psychopaths.

The story opens with the apparently accidental drowning of a sixth form student in the Norfolk countryside. As a matter of routine, or so it seems, the case passes across the desk of Detective Sergeant Smith, recently returned to work after an internal investigation into another case that has led to tensions between officers at Kings Lake police headquarters. As an ex-DCI, Smith could have retired by now, and it is clear that some of his superiors wish that he would do so.

It was 2:47 a.m. when Chief Inspector Alan Banks arrived at the barn and saw the body of Keith Rothwell for the first time. Only hours earlier two masked men had walked the mild-mannered accountant out of his farmhouse and clinically blasted him with a shotgun. Clearly this is a professional hit - but Keith was hardly the sort of person to make deadly enemies. Or was he? For the police investigation soon raises more questions than answers. And who, exactly, is Robert Clavert?

Summary
Peter Diamond, the Bath detective brilliant at rooting out murder, is peeved at being diverted to Professional Standards to enquire into a police car accident. Arriving late at the scene, he discovers an extra victim thrown onto an embankment - unconscious and unnoticed. Diamond administers CPR, but no one can say whether the elderly tricyclist will pull through. But why had the man been out in the middle of the night with an urn containing human ashes?
Diamond's suspicions grow after he identifies the accident victim as Ivor Pellegrini, a well-known local eccentric and railway enthusiast. A search of Pellegrini's workshop proves beyond question that he is involved in a series of uninvestigated deaths. While Pellegrini lingers on life support, Diamond wrestles with the appalling possibility that he has saved the life of a serial killer....

Not as good as earlier books
I’ve read/listened to many books in the detective Peter Diamond series and felt that this one to be inferior to earlier books in both the characterisation and plotting. Diamond has always been portrayed as a bit of a curmudgeon but in this novel he’s even more of a caricature. The female authority figures, such as the ACC, the head of a legal firm and a ward sister fare worse: the dialogue given to the last of these is worthy of a Carry On Film. Most of the characters are irritable and/or rude to one another. I don’t know if the author has tired of writing straightforward crime novels and is experimenting with a satirical pastiche, but it hasn’t worked. It just seems clumsy and unengaging.
While I expect a detective novel to be more contrived than real life it shouldn’t stretch credibility to the extent that this story does. After a slow start the novel gradually gathers some pace but goes off at tangents. The final denouement is weak and seem tacked on to the story as there are no clues laid during the narrative.
The narrator is better at depicting the male characters. The females mostly sound uptight or angry.

Will keep you guessing
No gruesome details, just good detective work with humour and good observation. Excellent plotting with unexpected twists and turns which which kept me guessing along with Superintendent Diamond until the end. Peter Wickham does a remarkable job in giving the many characters their own distinguishable voices so that I might have been listening to a radio drama.

Great series.
I've bought a few in this series, not read in any particular order, but they're a great antidote for those of us fed up with the increasing presence of blood and gore in today's detective stories, it all gets too much after a while, and is usually so unnecessary.
Peter Diamond is an old fashioned detective in many ways, surprisingly soft hearted and I love him! There's plenty of laugh out loud moments in the books, and the plots are quite good, too. Diamond is often not too sure how he's meant to react to some of the situations he finds himself in (especially concerning interactions with the opposite sex, poor man).
I like the stories so much, I'll be filling in all the spaces I have in the series, praise indeed!

One of the weaker in the series. Guessed the main part of the story early on. Narration aided this.
