The Winds of Change: A Richard Jury Mystery - Hardcover
A New York Times Bestseller
A child vanished. Police, private investigators - all had failed to find her. And on a shabby London street, Richard Jury bends over the body of another little girl and knows this will be one of the saddest investigations of his life, for the children appear to be connected - and in the worst possible way.

About the Author:
From AudioFile:
Martha Grimes is the bestselling author of twenty Richard Jury mysteries and also the acclaimed fiction Belle Ruin, Cold Flat Junction, Hotel Paradise, Foul Matter, The End of the Pier, and The Train Now Departing.
Grimes's latest Richard Jury mystery continues her long-standing series with the familiar figures of Jury and his friend, Melrose Plant. Sleuthing between Cornwall and London, Jury tries to link the disappearance and deaths of very young girls. Paul Hecht is a gifted narrator, offering a confidant, articulate performance of Cornwall gardeners, London businessmen, and country squires. But something's missing--perhaps it's the mostly subtle British accents and light characterizations. Grimes plays her characters to the hilt, yet Hecht seems to hold back, so the vocal portraits seem a little lackluster. The abridgment is good for the most part, but the ending seems to dissipate after a strong and intriguing build-up. R.F.W. © AudioFile 2004, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
