Title : Murders in White Coats - Phyllis Dorothy James - Book
Summary :
The setting: the John Carpendar Hospital, an imposing Victorian-era establishment housing several departments, including a nursing school. The first victim: one of the students, killed in a particularly atrocious manner. The suspects: the nurses, and, above all, the director, the formidable Mary Taylor, her three "seconds," but also the big boss, Dr. Courtney-Briggs, who is soon discovered to have had an affair with one of the victims. The investigator: Commissioner Dalgliesh, of course, who, faced with women hardened to suffering, hardworking, accustomed to professional secrecy, and fiercely feminist, will have his work cut out to unravel a plot whose ramifications plunge deep into the past.
A great vintage PD James, which earned its author two prestigious distinctions: the Gold Dagger of the Association of British Crime Writers and the American Edgar.
