The Further Investigations of Joanne Kilbourn

Review“Bowen is a national treasure.” — Ottawa Citizen“Joanne Kilbourn mysteries are small works of elegance that assume the reader of suspense is after more than blood and guts, that she is looking for the meaning behind a life lived and a life taken.” — Calgary Herald“Bowen has a hard eye for the way human ambition can take advantage of human gullibility.” — Publishers WeeklyFrom the Trade Paperback edition.Product DescriptionThis second Gail Bowen omnibus contains her next three masterful mysteries featuring Canada’s favourite amateur sleuth, Joanne Kilbourn. In A Colder Kind of Death, a prisoner is shot to death in the exercise yard of a Saskatchewan penitentiary, and Joanne becomes a suspect when his wife is found strangled; in A Killing Spring, the School of Journalism where Joanne teaches becomes a world of deceit and fear when one of its teachers is found dead in a seedy rooming house; and in Verdict in Blood, Joanne is asked to help solve the case of a tough judge who is found battered to death in a park.From the Trade Paperback edition.
