Large, mostly Georgian, with traditional kitchen gardens, orchards, and ornamental plantings, they are quintessentially English.\n\nTHE DETECTIVES\n\nDI Hillary Greene\nAn attractive woman in her forties, Hillary Greene is a police officer of many years’ experience, and came up through the ranks. Consequently, she knows how the system works, and is fiercely loyal to the force without being blinkered to its faults. She is a long-standing friend of her immediate superior officer, 'Mellow' Mallow and enjoys a rather enigmatic relationship with the steely Superintendent Marcus Donleavy. Popular with the rank and file for her no-nonsense attitude and competence.\n\nDCI Philip 'Mellow' Mallow\nMel appreciates Hillary's first-rate ability to solve her cases, and isn't happy about her harassment by the officers from York. Known for his sartorial elegance and laid-back manners, he has a sharp mind, and an eye for the ladies. A good friend and ally for Hillary in her recent tribulations, he's determined to keep his best investigator focused on the problems at hand.\n\nPLEASE NOTE THIS IS A REVISED EDITION OF A BOOK FIRST PUBLISHED AS “DOWN A NARROW PATH.”\n\nDI HILLARY GREENE SERIES\nBOOK 1: MURDER ON THE OXFORD CANAL\nBOOK 2: MURDER AT THE UNIVERSITY\nBOOK 3: MURDER OF THE BRIDE\nBOOK 4: MURDER IN THE VILLAGE\nBOOK 5: MURDER IN THE FAMILY\nBOOK 6: MURDER AT HOME\nBOOK 7: MURDER IN THE MEADOW\nBOOK 8: MURDER IN THE MANSION\nBooks 9-11 coming soon!\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1912106299\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: LFV.1912106299.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:MARTIN, FAITH\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Book is in very good condition.
