About this listen

An Adam Dalgliesh Mystery.

Set in the medical world of hospitals and nursing schools in London, the fourth Adam Dalgliesh Mystery is a thrilling work of detective fiction from the bestselling author of Death Comes to Pemberley and The Children of Men.

The young women of Nightingale House are there to learn to nurse and comfort the suffering. But when one of the students plays patient in a demonstration of nursing skills, she is horribly, brutally killed. Another student dies equally mysteriously and it is up to Adam Dalgliesh to unmask a killer who has decided to prescribe murder as the cure for all ills.

Critic Reviews

"Plenty of scrupulously laid false trails, credible detectives and a totally unexpected ending." ( Sunday Telegraph)
"James manages to invest even a simple mystery with a depth and intelligence that few in her trade can match." ( The Times)
