Another classical whodunnit, involving the ingenious Inspector Morse. The Foreign Examinations Syndicate at Oxford sets examinations for people from the Third World: integrity is of the highest order.  When a member of the Syndicate is murdered, Chief Inspector Morse immediately spots a clue which tells him that their integrity has been breached, and that another Syndicate member is the murderer.  Morse's investigation is truly labyrinthine, the truth is cunningly veiled, and the end is stunning and splendid.

Mystery

St.Martin's Press

Last Bus To Woodstock

The death of Sylvia Kaye featured dramatically in the "Oxford Mail". By Friday evening Inspector Morse had informed the nation that the police were looking for a dangerous man - facing charges of wilful murder, sexual assault and rape. Other books featuring Morse include "The Dead of Jericho".

Pan Books

After leaving home to return to school, teenager Valerie Taylor had vanished and the trail had gone cold. Two years after her disappearance somebody decides to supply new evidence for the case. Other Inspector Morse books include "Last Bus to Woodstock".

Last Seen Wearing

Chief Inspector Morse is called in to investigate the murder of an Oxford academic, and finds the dons in uproar. The code of integrity had been breached and Quinn's death was not a matter of how and why but when.

Inspector Morse was alone among the congregation in suspecting unrest in the quiet parish of St Frideswide's. Most could remember the churchwarden's murder and the suicide of the murderer. But a chance meeting reveals deception. Other Morse books include "Last Seen Wearing".

Service of All the Dead

The Dead of Jericho

Anne Scott's address was scribbled on a crumpled note in the pocket of Morse's smartest suit. Inspector Morse turned the corner of Canal Street, Jericho, on Wednesday afternoon. He hadn't planned a second visit, but was back the same day as officer in charge of a suicide investigation.

Dr Browne-Smith had passed through the porter's lodge at 8.15am and nobody had heard from him since. Plenty of time for him to disappear, thought Inspector Morse, and plenty of time for him to cover his trail. Other Morse books include "Service of All Dead" and "The Dead of Jericho".

The Riddle of the Third Mile

The Secret of Annexe 3

Inspector Morse seldom allowed himself to be caught up in New Year celebrations. So the murder enquiry in the festive hotel had a certain appeal. The corpse was still in fancy dress and hardly a single guest had registered under their genuine name. Other Morse books include "Last Seen Wearing".
