LEAVE THE GRAVE GREEN by Deborah Crombie is a Duncan Kincaid/Gemma James Crime Novel Book 3.
I was interested in this mystery series – the author was mentioned by the author, Louise Penny.
Each title is a bit better-written; the plot has more detail and tension and the characters are more personal and fleshed-out. The sense of place is excellent and is a reason I seem to read series – the location or sense of place is very interesting to me.; along with the culture, customs and idiosyncrasies of an area.
Kincaid and James seem to do most of their work ‘on their own’ and there are few references to their actual office/station or professional workplace, although the Thames Valley Force is mentioned frequently in this particular title.
LEAVE THE GRAVE GREEN opens with the accidental drowning of young Matthew Asherton. Twenty years later, Connor Swann’s body is found floating in a Thames River lock. Both victims are connected to Julia Asherton – Matthew was her brother and Connor is her husband.
Superintendent Duncan Kincaid is called to investigate along with his assistant, Sgt. Gemma James.
Good title and good series.

Review #2

Leave the Grave Green audiobook in series Duncan Kincaid / Gemma James Mystery Novels

This series was highly recommended to me by another fan of Louise Penny. The Three Pines mysteries are wonderful, but only one is being written each year which makes it a long wait between books. After reading those, it set a standard for mysteries which is hard to live up to. These novels are not quite a good as those, but are about as close as any I have read. This particular installment was my favorite so far and rates closer to 4.5 stars in my book.

One of the most pleasant aspects of this series as that the books are so character-driven. It really is necessary to start at the beginning and work your way through to fully enjoy them so you can watch the characters develop. While it would be an enjoyable read without the background, having it makes a huge difference.

As far as style, it’s more of a traditional English mystery than anything else. The main characters work for Scotland Yard so there is a realism than is lacking in the more cozy style book. It also isn’t full of blood and gore like many in the thriller genre include.

The book is engrossing and difficult to put down, leaving the reader wondering what the new twist or turn is going to be in the next chapter. Highly recommended for fans of good, intelligent mysteries – a bit of mystery combined with well-written literary prose. Have already downloaded the next one on my Kindle.

Review #3

Audiobook Leave the Grave Green by Deborah Crombie

The murder victim is certainly deeply flawed. Connor Swann is a stereotypical Irish charmer, fond of booze, women and horses. He’s found dead in the water, bruise marks at his throat.

Connor married into the aristocratic Asherton family, but his wife Julia has been trying to divorce him for a year, or has he been trying to divorce her? Either way, she’s under suspicion, as are the members of her family and various people in their artistic circles. The Ashertons are leading figures in the world of opera, and Julia is a talented painter.

With Superintendent Duncan Kincaid and his sergeant Gemma James digging into everyone’s movements and past, startling secrets are bound to emerge. Almost everyone has something to hide. Kincaid himself is no saint in this book either. He’s attracted to Julia, as well as to his sergeant, and it’s fun to watch this normally self-possessed man deal with his inappropriate impulses.

More interrogations take place over pints in pubs and over cucumber sandwiches and scones at teatime than at the station, and this contributes to the British ambience typical of Crombie’s mysteries. There’s also an interesting digression on the subject of the ancient landscapes of the Chilterns.

I found the investigation somewhat dull at first, but the pace picked up finally. The human dramas in this book are more interesting than the murder itself. That may be good or bad, depending on your taste in mysteries. I’m ambivalent about this series, but will probably give the next book a try.

Audio Leave the Grave Green narrated by Michael Deehy

Crombie weaves some information on art and opera into this mystery involving a titled family with a past tragedy and secrets that affect the present. As usual, Crombie creates interesting secondary characters while nudging along the relationship between regulars Duncan Kincaid and Gemma James. Some reviewers have complained that other Crombie novels have Kincaid and James driving back and forth too much between London and various villages–that complaint could apply here as well. Although their thoughts or conversations while driving often advance the deductions, I, for one, am not much interested in which of their cars is in worse shape or whether it is raining as they drive. I found the plot very engaging and kept working at the solution, along with the detectives, until the end. In Leave the Grave Green, Kincaid and James question each other’s objectivity because they do not want certain suspects to be guilty. However, it is Kincaid who steps over the line of professionalism in this novel, seeming not to know his own mind. I find his intense sympathy for and attraction to multiple female characters in each novel to be too much. Otherwise, I enjoy this series very much.

I began reading the Duncan Kincaid/Gemma James books in the middle of the series – Water Like a Stone – and was hooked but, to be honest, I wouldn’t have read all Deborah Crombie’s 18 in the series had I started at the first which Is good but not as rounded as the later novels and I held off commenting on any until completed the marathon. Firstly, I can say, without fear or favour, that I thoroughly enjoyed all of the mysteries. They are all whodunnits but centred around an expanding group of families and friends. While each book covers a separate mystery and murder(s) there is the recurrent theme of the family that runs through all the stories – and often murders come to Duncan and Gemma – separately and together. Because of the titles there is no need for a spoiler alert to the readers of the first book to know that Duncan and Gemma become an item and then a family – not as quickly as one might think. Having read a number of books that have been turned into TV series I’m surprised that no-one has attempted to turn what I believe to be one of the finest of the genre – I have not come across another series that so economically but finely draws its main characters. However, I notice that many of the current TV series have relatively few central characters and that perhaps the increasing cast of friends and family (despite losing a few on the way) might put producers off.
