Daughters-in-law
As Anthony and Rachel
Brinkley welcome their third daughter-in-law to the family, they don’t
quite realize the profound shift that is about to take place. For
different reasons, the Brinkleys’ two previous daughters-in-law hadn’t
been able to resist Rachel’s maternal control and Anthony’s gentle charm
and had settled into their husbands’ family without rocking the boat.
But Charlotte—very young, very beautiful, and spoiled—has no intention
of falling into step with the Brinkleys and wants to establish her own
household. Soon Rachel’s sons begin to think of their own houses as home
and of their mother’s house as simply the place where their parents
live—a necessary and inevitable shift of loyalties that threatens
Rachel’s sense of herself, breaks Anthony’s heart, and causes unexpected
consequences in all the marriages. Then a crisis brings these changes
to the surface, and everyone has to learn what family love means all
over again.

In a dry season
In the blistering, dry summer, the waters of Thornfield Reservior have
been depleted, revealing the ruins of the small Yorkshire village that
lay at its bottom, bringing with it the unidentified bones of a brutally
murdered young woman. Detective Chief Inspector Banks faces a daunting
challenge: he must unmask a killer who has escaped detection for half a
century. Because the dark secret of Hobb's End continue to haunt the
dedicated policeman even though the town that bred then has died—and
long after its former residents have been scattered to far places . . .
or themselves to the grave.
Inspector Banks-böckerna blir bara bättre och bättre, tycker jag.
