It is barely three months since the murder of his wife and Thomas Lynley takes to the South-West Coast Path in Cornwall, determined to walk its length in an attempt to distract himself from his loss. On the forty-third day of this walk, he sees a cliff climber fall to his death a death apparently witnessed by a surfer in a nearby cove. Shortly afterwards, Lynley encounters a young woman from Bristol whose personal history is a blank before her thirteenth year. These events propel him into a case that brings Barbara Havers from London and thrusts both detectives into a world where revenge is only one of the motives they must sift through to identify a killer.

"Elizabeth George's novels are so utterly British that some fans don't realize she's an American. Careless in Red is No. 15 in her Inspector Thomas Lynley series, and its solid writing also will please newcomers to her books...George, as always, pulls us into the vastly complicated lives of the locals, any one of whom could be the murderer. Careless will make new readers instant fans who will then be tempted to read all of George's Lynley novels." / USA Today
