Review # 2 was written on 2016-12-22 00:00:00 Robert English When a woman is found murdered and arranged in a grotesque posture in a church, Chief Superintendent Wycliffe is brought in to investigate. As he gets to know the people of the village, he begins to suspect that there is far more to the crime than meets the eye, and that there are more criminals living around there too…. Another in this long running series, published in 1992. I still like Wycliffe and his team, but I must say that I'm getting very tired of the casual sexism - 30+ women being referred to as "girls," and the like; this is supposed to be contemporary, not historical fiction! On the other hand, just this week (close to Christmas) I received a card from one of my Cornish cousins, 60+ years old, that was addressed to "Mr. and Mrs. CN," those being my husband's initials, even though I have never gone by my husband's name (that is, oddly enough, illegal in Quebec), so quite possibly the whole concept of feminism and equality hasn't yet made it to remote Cornwall…. |
