The body found under the hedge was that of a middle-aged woman. The gray eyes were wide and staring, and in them Inspector Wexford thought he saw a sardonic gleam. But that must have been his imagination. The woman was a stranger. There was nothing to give him her address, name or occupation, let alone any clues that might lead to her killer. Her death was rather unremarkable; it was her life that was a mystery.

      A body is found in a rural town outside London, and the townsfolk easily identify the victim. Yet, who was she, really? No one knows her real name, occupation, or address, much less who would want to kill her. Avid mystery readers may guess right away, but Nigel Anthony holds the listener spellbound until the very end. His subtle vocalizations are especially effective when depicting the elderly female characters, and his vocal variations are compelling enough to carry the listener through the plot's twists and turns. Classic in both content and delivery, this is an entertaining offering despite its predictability. B.L.W. (c) AudioFile 2002, Portland, Maine
