About this listen

Ann Cleeves Classic Crime - engaging mysteries to savour, beloved characters to meet again

The Healers is the fifth mystery novel in the Inspector Ramsay series by Ann Cleeves, author of the Shetland and Vera Stanhope crime series.

Isolated farmer Ernie Bowles was found lying on his kitchen floor, gruesomely strangled . . .

News of the murder came to Inspector Stephen Ramsay early on Monday morning and he fears this case will not be simple. In his experience, most murders are straightforward: an explosion of family pressure, the loss of control in a fight. But Bowles seems to have kept himself to himself and had lived alone since his mother’s death. A seemingly unconnected women is then found strangled too, surely two such killings in the same locality are more than just chilling coincidence?

When Ramsay hears of a third suspicious death, a very tenuous link between the victims takes on a new importance, for all were connected in some way to the Alternative Therapy Centre in Mittingford. Could one of the healers be a killer?

A satisfctory police procedual

Ann Cleeves gives us an absorbing tale full of memorable well rounded characters and interesting situations. This novel
follows on from the Inspector Ramsay book 4 and is no less intriguing and is as well researched as that novel. Ann Cleeves gives us enough detail and background to understand why Ramsay is led down various dead ends in his search for the truth.
If you are an Ann Cleeves fan do not be be deterred by a previous bad review.
