Jerusalem Inn

Martha Grimes: Jerusalem Inn (USA 2013)

From the Publisher:
From the rough but colorful pub that provides the book's title, to the snowboard Gothic estate nearby, the chilly English landscape has never held more atmosphere -- or thwarted romance. And Jury will never have a more mysterious Christmas.

Five Days Before Christmas: On his way to a brief holiday (he thinks) Jury meets a woman he could fall in love with. He meets her in a snow-covered graveyard -- not, he thinks, the best way to begin an attachment.

Four Days Before Christmas: Jury meets Father Rourke, who draws for him the semiotic square -- "a structure that might simplify thought," says the priest, but Jury's thoughts need more than symbols.

Three Days Before Christmas: Melrose Plant, Jury's aristocratic and unofficial assistant, arrives at Spinney Abbey, now home to a well-known critic. Among the assembled snowbound guests he meets -- Lady Assington, Beatrice Sleight, and the painter Edward Parmenger. When they all assemble in the dining room, Lady Assington announces, "I think we should have a murder."

Jerusalem Inn

Martha Grimes: Jerusalem Inn (USA 2004)

From the Publisher:
Bad tidings come to Scotland Yard's Richard Jury and sidekick Melrose Plant...

The woman in the snow-covered graveyard was beautiful and sensual -- just what Richard Jury needed to warm up a dreary Newcastle Christmas. But the next time Jury saw her, she was dead. Melrose Plant didn't fare much better. Snowbound at a stately mansion with a group of artists, critics, and idle-but-titled rich, he, too, encountered a lovely lady -- by stumbling over her corpse. A remote country inn was all that connected the two yuletide murders -- and was where holiday cheer turned to fear...

Jerusalem Inn

Martha Grimes: Jerusalem Inn (USA 1990)

From the Publisher:
A white Christmas couldn't make Newcastle any less dreary for Scotland Yard's Superintendent Richard Jury -- until he met a beautiful woman in a snow-covered graveyard. Sensual, warm, and a bit mysterious, she could have put some life into his sagging holiday spirit. But the next time Jury saw her, she was cold -- and dead. Melrose Plant. Jury's aristocratic sidekick wasn't faring much better. Snow bound at a stately mansion with a group of artists, critics, and idle-but-titled rich, he, too, encountered a lovely lady... or rather, stumbled over her corpse. What linked these two yuletide murders was a remote country pub where snooker, a Nativity scene, and an old secret would uncover a killer... or yet another death.

Martha Grimes: Jerusalem Inn. Dell, ISBN: 0440141818 (November, 1990), 270 p., $4.99.
