    Another Great Book
  

*by J***N on Reviewed in the United States on June 10, 2016*

Another exciting detective mystery in the series of Ian Rutledge of Scotland Yard. The novel takes place in England after WWI which has not yet recovered from the war. Part of the interest in this, and the other novels, is that Ian is treading upon a society that has been shredded from the horrific results of the war on English society and economic impact of an emerging mercantile class. The English Empire has been mortally wounded, and in England social mores have been damaged but still linger on.Ian must still deal with the strict Victorian social rules of class distinction, and at the same time deal with people on the lower classes and the "new mercantile class". This is fun reading as it is historically correct as to the social and economic mores of the time. And it complicates Ian's investigations but makes the plot more enjoyable.The plot is as always ingenious and one needs to keep ones wits sharp as the numerous suspects are brought up and involved in the story until the very end.Ian Rutledge has a sister and aunt who make a cameo appearance in this book. Ian works alone in the series so far and I am beginning to wish that he develops a bigger role for the aunt and sister. And most of all that maybe another figure befriends him and becomes more then a bit player as Ian continues his role in Scotland Yard.

    Ian Always Comes Through
  

*by D***C on Reviewed in the United States on July 6, 2024*

Not my favorite Ian Rutledge mystery. The hostage scenario was beyond unbelievable and incongruous.  The two principal characters were rather cardboard and unlikeable. But the ending and the final reveal were vintage Charles Todd—very satisfying and made up for some of the other deficiencies in this book.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    well-written and marvelously crafted story
  

*by B***L on Reviewed in the United States on March 7, 2016*

A man has been beaten nearly to death and the first man the local police suspect is a former soldier who fought under Insp. Ian Rutledge in World War I.The man bolts, hits the policeman with his car, and 'flees' to the victim's wife -- a woman he had once dated and lost. In the stress and in confusion, the woman shoves her husband's revolver into her former lover's hands and tells the police that she is being held against her will. The only man her capturer will deal with: Insp. Rutledge.The action buys the couple some time but nothing else -- the town now believes they are both guilty and brings Rutledge into contact with his memories of war. Rutledge must hold those memories at bay as he investigates what goes beyond rumors and deep-seated hatred. Once again, Charles Todd has written a masterful and exciting story that holds interests from the beginning to the end. A very good book.
