Een Duister Vermoeden (2012) - Plot & Excerpts

Elizabeth George, unfortunately, is particularly skillful at creating characters that are engaging and realistic. Her protagonists are particularly attractive characters. And her mystery plotting is just as careful and skillful. I say unfortunately because she includes adult situations and details that make her novels R rated. This one's not as bad as some--more PG13 than R sexual encounters--except that the plot involves some very nasty incidents involving the manufacture of child pornography. Somehow I always forget why I stopped reading her before I pick up one of her tomes, and I'm involved in the story before it gets explicit. This novel is redeemed by its positive ending. This novel is 610 pages. It was hard to get started. A man named Ian Cresswell's death up in Cumbria has been ruled an accident. His uncle Baron Bernard Fairclough contacts Sir David Hillier at New Scotland Yard because he's not too sure it was accidental.Hillier orders Inspector Thomas Lynley to check out the situation, though Tommy is not allowed to tell anybody what he's doing. Nevertheless Tommy gets his pals Simon and Deborah St. James to go up to Cumbria undercover and do some serious snooping. The Faircloughs and associated relatives have a lot of secrets and are living a lot of lies. What follows is a lot of people getting very upset. Some relationships are destroyed while others are strengthened.Lynley has Barbara Havers do some work for him in London and she reveals some really astounding information.There is no murder to solve, though there is an additional death.Barbara Havers is also involved with her nine year old neighbor Hadiyya and what happens to her is the lead-in to the next novel in the series "Just One Evil Act" which you could read without reading this one.Lynley's affair with his boss acting Detective Superintendent Isabelle Ardery is also covered, though him being up in Cumbria makes it difficult for both of them.

Very long and didn't think I would finish it for a while but then got into it and really enjoyed it.
