This is the first of my intended Inspector Morse re-read. The technology in use places this very firmly in time and it matched by an equally dated attitude to women and sex. As you’ll see from this article it didn’t end well but this first foray is an interesting, now historical, novel. A single text message would have destroyed the whole premise but the application of actual detection skills is a nice contrast to the over-reliance on technology of more contemporary fiction.
