Summoned at night, Peter Diamond is collected from his West London flat by two policemen who drive him to bath, where once he headed the murder squad. Out of touch in his retirement, he knows nothing of an audacious escape from Albany Prison. Four years before, he investigated the bizarre murder of a Swedish woman journalist.

Another fine entry in this mystery series of Chief Inspector Peter Diamond of Bath, England. He resigns in an earlier book over being (he felt) mistreated but he's summoned back here, because they need his sharp mind. A great read, as always, in this series.
