Commander Adam Dalgliesh is already acquainted with the Dupayne Museum in Hampstead, and with its sinister murder room celebrating notorious crimes committed in the interwar years, when he is called to investigate the killing of one of the trustees. He soon discovers that the victim was seeking to close the museum against the wishes of both staff and fellow trustees. Everyone, it seems, has something to gain from the crime. When it becomes clear that the killer is prepared to kill again, inspired by the real-life crimes from the murder room, Dalgliesh knows that to solve this case he has to get into the mind of a ruthless killer.

Went with me to the meet-up for someone to take it home.

I think I saw a TV film made of this story. The film was rather short if I remember right and the book is thick. There is much more content in the book I suppose. Thank you for the book, Hippolein!
Now I did not remember anymore who was the murderer, so it was the time to read this thick book. Quite a good read it was!
I wonder how many more books P. D. James wrote which I did not read yet. I must find out.
I'll take the book to the meetings. Maybe the next reader will be found there.
Thank you, Hippolein!
