Beschreibung

A vintage Dakota aircraft should be the perfect setting for a peaceful sightseeing flight. But when construction tycoon Birger Bergersen is discovered dead in his seat—killed by a nail gun to the head—private investigator Olivia Henriksen faces her most challenging case yet.

Hired by the Dakota flying club, Olivia soon discovers that Bergersen had made enemies throughout Norway's construction industry. With nineteen passengers who all had motive and opportunity, the investigation takes her from belly dancing classes to sailing regattas as she uncovers a world of exploited workers and corrupt developers.

But when Olivia stumbles into a massive social dumping operation, the case becomes deadly personal. Trapped by a killer who's already claimed one life, she must rely on her wits and a conveniently placed manure pit to survive.

As she peels back layers of deceit in Norway's construction world, Olivia realises that some business empires are built on foundations of crime—and their owners will kill to protect them.

The third book in the Island Mysteries series featuring the resourceful Olivia Henriksen.

    Linking the dying words of three slain strangers proves risky for Dalziel and Pascoe in this "shrewd . . . and deft" mystery (The New York Times). 
     
     
      
    Reginald Hill "raised the classical British mystery to new heights" when he introduced pugnacious Yorkshire Det. Inspector Andrew Dalziel and his partner, the callow Sgt. Peter Pascoe (The New York Times Book Review). Their chafing differences in education, manners, technique, and temperament made them "the most remarkable duo in the annals of crime fiction" (Toronto Star). The Gold Dagger Award–winning series was adapted into a long-running hit show for the BBC. 
     
     
      
    On the same night, three old men are offed: One is found in the icy rain sputtering the name "Polly" before expiring; another mumbles "Charley" after being beaten in his bathtub; and most alarmingly, the final words of the third, a cyclist knocked off the road by a drunk driver, implicate Superintendent Andrew Dalziel in the fatal hit and run. Bearing the brunt of three seemingly disparate investigations while proving his partner's innocence, Peter Pascoe follows a confounding trail that leads to one victim's family secrets, a shady retirement community, and corruption within the CID's ranks that's putting more than Dalziel's already dicey reputation in peril.

    AD 191. An ancient grove, broken promises, a lost keepsake. Rich Lucretia is on the way to the town of Durnovaria. The last time she saw it she’d just rejected an arranged teenage marriage, but now she's back to claim an inheritance, taking the local wise-woman Tryssa as a companion. Unknown to anyone, two hapless grave-robbers have been seeking ancient treasures in a stone circle nearby, without any idea that what they've found will open up old wounds from a more recent past. With Lucretia’s family busy arguing about money, any possibility that an old ring bought in the forum might be important is pushed aside until Lucretia’s cousin is poisoned and the local magistrate Amicus starts to raise questions. As the past starts to catch up with the present, Tryssa must help Amicus discover who would kill rather than reveal long-buried truths... and what those truths actually are.
