A Mind to Murder (Adam Dalgliesh Mysteries, No. 2)
More 3 1/2 stars. This is a reread from a long time ago and I'd forgotten the ending. Sometimes we are too clever for our own good. Dalgliesh learns this lesson the hard way in this clever murder mystery set in a has been posh psychiatric clinic. James does set up Dalgliesh as this dark, brooding, dashing, tragic in a way lead character. None of the secondary characters are really developed but it works with the atmosphere of secrets and unsaid things looming over the story.
