Description
An isolated Scottish mansion is the venue for a reading of a controversial new play by a West End theatre company. But on the very first evening, the playwright is savagely murdered, and Inspector Thomas Lynley faces the most testing case of his career.
For one of the suspects is Lady Helen Clyde, the woman Lynley loves. As he attempts to untangle the family scandals, fierce theatrical rivalries, and long-buried secrets that beset the case, Lynley struggles to balance the clinical detachment of his job with the intensity of his feelings.
Payment in Blood challenges Inspector Lynley as he delves deep into a web of intrigue and passion, questioning his own professional boundaries and personal loyalties.
