Time of Death is the thirteenth installment in the Tom
Thorne series. Detective Inspector Tom Thorn and his girlfriend Helen are on
vacation when two girls go missing in Helen’s hometown. When her childhood
friend’s husband is arrested for the crime they head to Helen’s hometown, she
to offer support and Tom to investigate even though he has no jurisdiction, the
local police want nothing to do with him and the evidence overwhelmingly points
to the husband’s guilt. But then that’s Tom all over. With help from his good
friend Phil, Thorn sets about getting to the truth and Helen faces a past that
had kept her away for over twenty years.
I love this series. I love the time and effort that
Billingham puts into his characters, the relationship between them and their
very human foibles that make me wonder if Phil will find true love and if or
perhaps when will Tom and Helen part.
