A Suitable Vengeance by Elizabeth George
An Inspector Lynley novel Detective Inspector Thomas Lynley, 8th Earl of Asherton, has brought to Howenstow, his ancestral home, the young woman he has asked to be his bride. But the savage murder of a local journalist soon becomes the catalyst for a lethal series of events which shatters the calm of the picturesque Cornish community, tearing apart powerful ties of love and friendship, and exposing a long-buried family secret. The resulting tragedy will forever alter the course of Thomas Lynley's life.
Elizabeth George's first novel, A GREAT DELIVERANCE, was honoured with the Anthony and Agatha Best First Novel awards in America and received the Grand Prix de Litterature Policiere in France. That was followed by the critically acclaimed PAYMENT IN BLOOD and then WELL-SCHOOLED IN MURDER, which was awarded the prestigious German prize for international mystery fiction, the MIMI, in 1990. Her later novels are the highly acclaimed A SUITABLE VENGEANCE, FOR THE SAKE OF ELENA, MISSING JOSEPH, PLAYING FOR THE ASHES and IN THE PRESENCE OF THE ENEMY. Elizabeth George divides her time between Huntington Beach, California, and London.
