P D James’s Adam Dalgliesh series is presented here as a five-book collection, bringing together a set of investigations featuring Superintendent, and later Commander, Adam Dalgliesh. Across the selection, Dalgliesh is drawn into cases where the circumstances appear tightly contained, and where those closest to the crime may have reasons to conceal the truth.

The set includes a murder at a London psychiatry clinic placed in lockdown, a killing that disrupts a rural break in Monksmere, and a sequence of deaths among third-year nursing students. Also included are a death discovered behind a bolted bedroom door at Martingale house, and a mystery on the Dorset coast following the unexplained death of a chaplain at a home for the disabled.

Synopses

A Mind to Murder

Superintendent Adam Dalgliesh is called to a gruesome murder at a psychiatry clinic in London. The building is in lockdown, and no one has entered or left since the body was found.

Unnatural Causes

After a particularly brutal case in London, Dalgliesh takes a break in the countryside. His respite is interrupted when the mutilated body of a local crime writer is discovered in Monksmere.

Shroud for a Nightingale

On a January morning, third-year nursing students gather for a clinical lesson and witness the murder of a classmate. Before the month ends, another student is found dead, this time in what appears to be a suicide.

Cover Her Face

Sally Jupp is found dead in her bedroom, with the door bolted from the inside. The occupants of Martingale house expect suspicion to fall on an unknown intruder, but each of them is hiding something.

The Black Tower

Commander Dalgliesh is recovering from a life-threatening illness when an elderly friend asks for advice. He travels to a home for the disabled on the Dorset coast and learns that Father Baddeley has died in mysterious circumstances.
