Nineteen ninety-three marks the twenty-fifth year that Jonathan Ross has been delighting readers with what Booklist calls his "perennially popular series" featuring Detective Superintendent George Rogers. Murder Be Hanged is his seventeenth Rogers procedural, and by every measure among his best. As the book opens, Rogers, at odds with both golfing and women, fears he may be entering a mid-life crisis. But his senses are immediately sharpened after a secret night meeting with Willie Sloane, an unpleasant teenager who suspects his stepfather is trying to murder his mother. Assisted by his elegant second-in-command, Detective Chief Inspector David Lingard - and the too-attractive-for-comfort Inspector Miller - Rogers untangles a confusion of guilt and treachery involving three violent deaths, a spicy family affair, and a moonlit denouement harboring lethal menace against Rogers himself.

Murder Be Hanged

After stumbling onto a crime, and, subsequently, recovering from a severe knock on the head, Detective Superintendent George Rogers discovers the crime's motive and a body--all the while romancing a blind woman named Phaedra Haggar

St.Martin's Press

Philip Cruikshank is in his pajamas in the garage of his comfortable Abbotsburn home. He is also, unfortunately, dangling from the end of a rope. Cruikshank's hanging looks suspicious, and his common-law wife, a promiscuous nightclub singer whom he has recently jilted, is nowhere to be found. Worse yet, the irritable Detective Superintendent George Rogers must fence with an ex-lover and with the new woman detective on his team, even while conducting his own amorous investigation of the elegant widow Angharad Rhys Pritchard.
