Items related to As Serious as Death (Primavera Blackstone Mystery series)
The fifth entry in the thrilling crime series starring tough-talking Primavera Blackstone
Primavera Blackstone has found a hard-earned contentment in a small Spanish village by the sea. A fiercely protective single mother, she doesn't appreciate an offer of marriage. Nor does she welcome the arrival of a blast from her murky Scottish past, retired cop Ricky Ross, now a private detective and working for Jack Weighley, millionaire owner of a budget airline. Jack is a powerful, persuasive man with deep pockets, someone one doesn't say "no" to without considering the consequences. So Primavera teams up with Ricky to investigate a series of mystery assaults on Jack's aircraft. Are they mere acts of vandalism, or the sinister work of Catalan extremists? When Ricky's car is fire-bombed and he narrowly escapes with his life, more questions arise—not least, why is the Spanish Special Branch involved? As Primavera and Ricky are drawn into events, and the body count rises, she begins to understand the true meaning of "til death us do part."

Quintin Jardine is the author of the Bob Skinner Mysteries, the Oz Blackstone series, and the Primavera Blackstone series.
Remarkably assured...a tour de force * New York Times * Well constructed, fast-paced, Jardine's narrative has many an ingenious twist and turn * Observer * Very engaging as well as ingenious, and the unravelling of the mystery is excellently done -- Allan Massie * Scotsman *
