Inspector Ian Rutledge

review 1: I liked this Charles Todd book. There was a twist at the end I did not see coming. I do agree with other readers that in the middle the book became a little tedious with Rutledge's back and forth interviews. However, it quickly picked up steam. Rutledge's character continues to show new sides. I loved the interaction between Rutledge and the clergyman. In fact, I cried in the end which is not a usual emotion for a crime series. I look forward to the next Charles Todd Rutledge book.
review 2: It's August 1920 and a guest is shot by a sniper as he walks into Ely Cathedral in Cambridgshire for a wedding. Shortly thereafter a Tory candidate for Parliament is shot, also by a sniper, while giving a campaign speech in a small town. Because of a lack of progre... moress in solving the murders, Scotland Yard is called in and Inspector Ian Rutledge is sent to investigate. I confess that I love this series and purchased this book on the day that it was released. And this book does not disappoint. The landscape almost becomes a character as Inspctor Rutledge travels through the Fen country in East Anglia and, as always, the shadows of World War I haunt most of the characters. This is the 16th book in the Ian Rutledge series and each one more fully develops Rutledge's story. So my recommendation is to read the books in this series in order to fully appreciate the character development as Ian Rutledge tries to create a life for himself following his time in the trenches in World War I. less
