This is the first in the Inspector Thant Series originally published in 1981. Even though it is over 25 years old, it still holds up to todays standards.

Inspector Like Thanet is called into investigate the brutal death of Julie a young housewife murdered in her own home. Though married, this beautiful woman had many men interested in her, yet she seemed to spurns them all. Digging further Thanet finds many similarities to a murder some twenty years before when a then three year old Julie witnesses a murder. Thanet must decide if her past caught up with her and whether a conniving murderer plotted their revenge.

This is a great series. Dont think you need to read them in order since I havent and I dont seem to have missed anything.

The books arent easy to find but well worth the hunt.

This book was my first experience of reading a work by Dorothy Simpson. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Inspector Thanet and Detective Sergeant Lineham are likeable characters with a good working chemistry. I'm looking forward to reading more books in this English mystery series. It was a guessing game until the end.
