Now he must analyze the deep-seated anxieties and thwarted desires of patients and staff alike to determine which of their unresolved conflicts has resulted in murder and stop a cunning killer before the next blow., When the administrative head of the Steen Psychiatric Clinic is found dead with a chisel in her heart, Superintendent Adam Dalgliesh of Scotland Yard is called in to investigate.

    Great price on a great mystery novel!

    I have recently become hooked on PD James/Adam Dalgliesh English murder mysteries. This is a great way to get great reads for a modest price.
