Bones and silence: a Dalziel and Pascoe novel - Hardcover
"The time has come for full recognition of Hill's superlative novels." Today Detective-Superintendent Andy Dalziel has witnessed a murder - butit was through a glass and he was being sick at the time - was he mistaken? He has other irritations to contend with, including a woman threatening suicide - who is she? Peter Pascoe walks into all this on his return from a long convalescence. He must divert Dalziel's obsessional pursuit of a probably innocent man and make up for his scornful neglect of a suicidal woman. "...the best pair of working coppers in the business." The Observer

From the Inside Flap:
One woman dead and one threatening to die set Yorkshire's police superintendent Dalziel and Inspector Pascoe on a chilling hunt for a killer and a potential suicide. A drunken Dalziel witnesses the murder that others insist is a tragic accident. Meanwhile the letters of an anonymous woman say she plans to kill herself in a spectacular way...unless Pascoe can find her first. Dalziel has been picked to play God in a local Mystery Play, but can he live up to his role by solving this puzzling psychological thriller...or unveiling the passions and perversions that lie hidden in the human heart?
From the Back Cover:
"Hill's most ambitious Dalziel and Pascoe novel yet--and one whose humor, keenness, and insight place him securely in the company of Ruth Rendell and P.D. James."
--Kirkus Reviews
"Hill is at his best here.... This latest mystery confirms his place among top British writers who produce solid stories of detection that succeed as first-rate novels exploring human character."
