Description

The number one New York Times best-selling author’s award-winning series returns with another stunning crime drama featuring Scotland Yard members Detective Inspector Thomas Lynley and Detective Sergeant Barbara Havers.

Look out for Elizabeth George’s newest novel, The Punishment She Deserves.

The unspoken secrets and buried lies of one family rise to the surface in Elizabeth George’s newest novel of crime, passion, and tragic history. As Inspector Thomas Lynley investigates the London angle of an ever more darkly disturbing case, his partner, Barbara Havers, is looking behind the peaceful façade of country life to discover a twisted world of desire and deceit. The suicide of William Goldacre is devastating to those left behind who will have to deal with its unintended consequences - could there be a link between the young man’s leap from a Dorset cliff and a horrific poisoning in Cambridge? After various issues with her department, Barbara Havers is desperate to redeem herself. So when a past encounter gives her a connection to the unsolved Cambridge murder, Barbara begs Thomas Lynley to let her pursue the crime, knowing one mistake could mean the end of her career.

Full of shocks, intensity, and suspense from the first minute to the last, A Banquet of Consequences reveals both Lynley and Havers under mounting pressure to solve a case both complicated and deeply disturbing.

I love this series!

I usually tire of characters when series go on too long, but I just love the Lynley (Havers) series. Of course, some books I've enjoyed more than others. I don't believe an author can write 20 books with each better than the last.
This one certainly kept me guessing . . . and as usual, I was wrong on a couple of points.
I also find the changing of narrator every few books keeps it from getting stale, rather than being a distraction. And I've very much enjoyed ALL of the chosen narrators!

Great Story!

Loved the book and was glad to hear John Lee narrate again (also narrates Ken Follet's 'Pillars of the Earth' trilogy).

One of Her most entertaining

The subject matter was a little dark but the story kept you guessing and there were surprising twists. I like that you got to know some of the supporting characters better and they were quite funny at times. It took me a while to get used to the narrator some of his inflection sounded like a poor imitation of Captain Kirk from Star Trek and other times like Anthony Andrews as the scarlet pimpernel but the story was strong enough to override it. Very enjoyable listen
