Los muertos de Jericó (Serie del inspector Morse, 5)

Inspector Morse could be charged with murder. Yet, when he decided to spend the night with that attractive young woman, he could never have imagined he would end up in the biggest mess of his life. Everything had been perfect: the party with its loud music, the cold beer, the laughter of friends, and the crumpled note from Ann Scott in his pocket bearing a scribbled address in the historic Jericho district. When Ms. Scott’s body is discovered later that same day, all signs point to suicide. Morse—who had never intended to return—finds himself forced to go back to the house he had left only hours earlier, this time as the officer in charge of the investigation. No one believes the young woman took her own life—not even Morse himself. Consequently, the legendary Oxford police inspector must rely on his faithful partner Lewis, the occasional pint, and his own sharp wits to solve the crime and prove his innocence. All the while, time is relentlessly ticking away against him…
