Summary

A young friend pulls Scotland Yard's Richard Jury into the life - and death - of a wealthy bachelor....

The once-charismatic Billy Maples was last seen in a club named Dust, before his murder in a trendy London hotel. Proving as inscrutable - and challenging - to Jury as the case is the beautiful chief inspecting officer....

Before his death, Maples was a patron of London's finest art galleries and caretaker of author Henry James' house in Rye. It's there where Jury installs Melrose Plant, who takes his job to heart, as Jury closes in on the dark secrets behind Maples' friends and family....

Why? Completely unsatisfactory ending.

ok so we know who did it at the end of this one but in the absence of any evidence except Jury 's hunch we still don't know why they did it. true motive is not necessary to prove a murder but in a mystery story it would be nice to have some sense of how the crime was solved. Grimes seems to want to make us think we are stupid for not figuring it out. I think I'll be returning this book. the historical references are somewhat suspect too.
