Beautiful Lie the Dead is the eighth book in the Inspector Green mystery series. The setting is Ottawa and Montreal in the winter and the weather plays a role in the plot. The story revolves around the search for a missing fiancee which transforms to a more serious situation. The uncovering of family secrets and several coincidences drive the plot forward but the writing keeps the reader involved even though the suspicion of what the end might be begins to build midway through the read. Characters from the earlier volumes continue to evolve and develop and new readers will feel comfortable with their various narratives.
