About this listen
A piercing scream, shattering the evening calm, brings Superintendent Adam Dalgliesh hurrying from his literary party to the nearby Steen Psychiatric Clinic, where he discovers the body of a woman sprawled on the basement floor, a chisel thrust through her heart.
As Dalgliesh probes beneath the apparently unruffled calm of the clinic, he discovers that many an intrigue lies hidden behind the Georgian terrace's unassuming façade. Professionally, he has never known the taste of failure. Now, for the first time, he feels unsure of his own mastery as he battles to unmask a cool killer who is proving to be his intellectual equal, and who is poised to strike again.
A Mind To Murder is the second novel to feature Superintendent Adam Dalgliesh from the bestselling author of Death Comes To Pemberley, Death in Holy Orders and The Children of Men. In 1995 the novel was adapted into a hit film and starred Roy Marsden as the inspector protagonist.

Reliable, Red Herring Soup
A nice picture of personalities, back stories, twists and turns in nicely class-conscious sixties (?) Britain.

A great escape
Where does A Mind to Murder rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
P. D. James is a classic writer in this genre. she is up there with Christie and Sayers as my favourites when it comes to crime fiction.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Adam Dalgliesh, he is sensitive, intelligent and direct. His character adds weight to his approach in solving the crime through his self reflection and strong ethical standards.
Have you listened to any of Daniel Weyman’s other performances? How does this one compare?
Daniel has a great voice and narrates the story well, I find it really relaxing to listen to.
