Summary

Charlie Rutland, a womanizing journalist, is found brutally murdered. He worked for a muck-raking gossip magazine and therefore had many enemies.

Detective Crow is assigned to Yorkshire where he must eliminate a long list of suspects.

And where does the German businessman Conrad Gunther fit in? Mysterious lights at Lockyer Tarn, a homeless man hiding out on the Yorkshire Dales, a stolen Volvo, and a former Gestapo officer are all seemingly linked in some manner.

And then the British spy services get involved.... Will Crow have his investigation shut down before he can catch the murderer?

Inspector John Crow

Skeletally-built, mild-mannered Inspector John Crow is established in the Murder Squad in London and constantly meets hostility when he is called upon to work on murder cases in regional crime squads in Wales and the Midlands. He displays strong moral feelings, and a sensitivity which brings him into conflict with regional staff as he doggedly and successfully pursues the truth in cases where he is called in.

Another treat of a book by Roy Lewis.

I was a bit unsure about the Inspector John Crow series after reading the first book, "A Lover Too Many," and finding it enjoyable but definitely below Roy Lewis's usual excellent standard. But the following books have all been fantastic - expertly plotted and paced and brimming with fascinating characters. In "Murder for Money," Inspector Crow has to solve a murder connected with potentially very sensitive historical events. It's a cracking read.

Another must listen from Roy Lewis

I was hooked on the first book. I liked the era it was set in & the detectives dogged hard work of the day - no major forensics running the case. Crow is a well rounded decent man & the narrator nailed it perfectly- I just need the next 4 books in the series now- Audible get them on please I am hooked
