Death is now my neighbor, by Colin Dexter

 

This is another complex Inspector Morse mystery set in Oxford, England. Similar to his other books, Morse jumps to conclusions about how the murders were committed and by whom, only to abandon each theory when more details are uncovered. This is the 12th in the series, nearing the end, and Morse is feeling his age as he suffers from a series of physical ailments that barely slow him down. Well written as always, the book reveals a more sentimental side of Morse, although he hasn't lost his ability to enchant the ladies.
