Product Description

As he drove his chief down to Kidlington, Lewis returned the conversation to where it had begun.
‘You haven’t told me what you think about this fellow Owens – the dead woman’s next-door neighbour.’
‘Death is always the next-door neighbour,’ said Morse sombrely.
The murder of a young woman... A cryptic ‘seventeenth-century’ love poem... And a photograph of a mystery grey-haired man...
More than enough to set Chief Inspector E. Morse on the trail of a killer.
And it’s a trail that leads him to Lonsdale College, where the contest between Julian Storrs and Dr Denis Cornford for the coveted position of Master is hotting up.
But then Morse faces a greater, far more personal crisis...

Themed Release - The Morse Walk - Bookcrossing Convention in Oxford
We were allowed only ten minutes in Oxford University Museum of Natural History during The Inspector Morse Walk. I left the book near Dodo.
Happy reading!

It was great to find this book nestled against a column in the Natural History Museum in Oxford, the home of Morse. Very apt. This is my first experience of bookcrossing and I am delighted to find out about it. I'm looking forward to reading it.
