"Peter Lovesey loves strong women, cerebral killers and diabolical puzzles—the very ingredients that make The House Sitter one of the most cunning mysteries in his Inspector Diamond series." —The New York Times Book Review
The corpse of a beautiful woman, clad in only a bathing suit, is found strangled to death on a popular Sussex beach. When she is finally identified, it turns out she was a top profiler for the National Crime Faculty, who was working on the case of a serial killer. And though she was a Bath resident, the authorities don't want Detective Superintendent Peter Diamond to investigate the murder. How strange. What could they be trying to hide?

From AudioFile:
On a sunny summer beach, the tide comes in, and the sunbathers scatter. But the woman behind the blue windbreak isn't moving, and her belongings are being lapped up by the sea. A murder, indeed--which becomes a case for Detective Inspector Peter Diamond. Amid the threat of three more murders, Steve Hodson pleasantly delivers an intelligent summation of each happening. He gives an understandable sketch of all the characters and keeps listeners interested in the convoluted mystery. J.P. © AudioFile 2005, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
