Please tell me if this is universal to readers, but sometimes I have a book that I want to read so badly, but I keep putting off reading it because I will be devastated if I don't like it. That is what's been going on with me and Ann Cleeves' The Crow Trap.
From the cover: At an isolated cottage in the mountains, several very different women are thrown together as they complete an environmental study. Women who each know the meaning of betrayal.
Rachael, the team leader, is still reeling after a double betrayal by her lover and boss. Anne, a botanist, sees the survey as a chance to indulge in a little deception of her own. And then there is Grace, an uncommunicative and secretive young woman.
Rachael is the first to arrive at the cottage, but when she gets there she is shocked to discover an apparent suicide. It is only after another death occurs that a fourth woman enters the picture - the unconventional Detective Inspector Vera Stanhope.
