Summary
Ann Cleeves Classic Crime - engaging mysteries to savour, beloved characters to meet again
A Day in the Death of Dorothea Cassidy is the third mystery novel in the Inspector Ramsay series by Ann Cleeves, author of the Shetland and Vera Stanhope crime series.
For Dorothea Cassidy Thursdays were special. But one Thursday in June was to be more special than any other. It was the day that Dorothea Cassidy was strangled...
As the small town of Otterbridge prepares for its summer carnival, Inspector Stephen Ramsay begins a painstaking reconstruction of Dorothea’s last hours. He soon discovers that she had taken on a number of deserving cases – a sick and lonely old woman, a disturbed adolescent, a compulsive gambler, a single mother with a violent boyfriend and a child in care – and even her close family have their secrets to hide. All these people are haunted, in one way or another, by Dorothea’s goodness. But which of them could have possibly wanted her dead?
It is not until a second body is discovered that Ramsay starts to understand how Dorothea lived – and why she died. With the carnival festivities in full swing and dusk falling in Otterbridge, Ramsay’s murder investigation reaches its chilling climax...

Not as gripping as usual
Ann cleeves is an amazing writer and I love all her characters. This was not as good as others but still worth a read

Good Yarn
Not the best Ann Cleeves novel but very listenable, nicely read. Red herrings were a little too obvious.

Most Enjoyable
A new series for me but I have read quite a lot of Anne Cleeves’ work. I have downloaded the rest of this series.

A very clever plot.
A great story. Badly read. Read too fast at times. Words run together. I turned the reading speed down to the slowest,which helped.
