In A Slowly Dying Cause, amid the beauty of Cornwall\u2019s coastline, the death of a local man shatters the peace with its violence. The body of Michael Lobb was discovered in his family\u2019s tin and pewter workshop, and Detective Inspector Beatrice Hannaford is brought in to investigate. Suspicion quickly develops when it emerges that a mining company had been trying to buy the man\u2019s land, and Lobb was the only remaining obstacle to the deal going through.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But every step of Bea\u2019s investigation provokes more questions than answers, and the complexity of the case develops further as Lobb\u2019s family life, rife with mistrust and deception, comes to light. With cryptic alibis and shifting motives, the tangled web of intrigue soon draws in her colleagues Thomas Lynley and Barbara Havers, who must search for a killer in a community that has very little trust in outsiders . . .<\/p>\n\n\n\n
