Maybe not for you if...

  • You're after modern police procedurals with forensic detail and contemporary investigative methods.

About this book

This collection contains the first three Chief Inspector Barnaby mysteries by Caroline Graham, which served as the basis for the British crime drama Midsomer Murders. The Killing at Badger's Drift follows the murder of a spinster in the village of Badger's Drift. When her best friend draws attention to the crime, Detective Chief Inspector Barnaby and his deputy investigate, uncovering scandals and long-suppressed resentments hidden beneath the village's picturesque surface. Death of a Hollow Man centers on the murder of a leading actor during a theatrical performance in a small English village. Inspector Barnaby and his deputy work to identify the killer amid the theater world. Death in Disguise involves the Lodge of the Golden Windhorse, a commune in Compton Dando that has become the subject of local gossip and speculation about its practices. When the commune's leaders are murdered, Chief Inspector Barnaby must investigate to distinguish fact from rumor in a case where reality proves stranger than expected.
