Reseña del libro "Pel and the Staghound: 5 (The Inspector pel Mystery Series) (en Inglés)"
Temperatures are dropping as winter takes Burgundy into a tight grip, but the crime rate shows no sign of freezing, and Inspector Pel and his team of detectives are as busy as ever. A well-known fraudster is found dead in an alleyway - could gang rivalry be to blame? And who is behind a series of attacks targeting gay men in the town?On top of all this, a wealthy local businessman, François Rensselaer, disappears - but oddly, none of his family seem very bothered about it. Only Archer, his favourite staghound, is anxious for his missing master. It's down to Pel to unravel the mystery, uncovering motives as dark as the blackest winter night along the way.Moody, sharp-tongued and worrying constantly about his health, Inspector Pel ensures that no case goes unsolved, in these mordantly witty French mysteries.Praise for the Inspector Pel Mystery series: 'Totally convincing.' Financial Times'Mr Hebden has created a nice band of flics.' Oxford Times'Pel and his procedurals are some of the best things since Maigret.' Observer'Chief Inspector Evariste Clovis Désiré Pel, as well rounded a character as Maigret or Van der Valk.' Punch'Impeccable French ambience, unexaggerated flics, and a well-constructed solution. Hebden proves again that few understand Gallic cops better than English writers!' The Times'Some characters grow as their saga lengthens and Pel... is one of them. You might say he is ripening along with the grapes.' Police Review'...written with downbeat humour and some delightful dialogue.' Financial Times'...all is most cunningly contrived and dovetailed into a coherent plot.' Irish Times'A thoroughly entertaining read.' Evening Standard'The best Gallic sleuth since Maigret.'
