Murder in Protocol

It seemed as though Doyle was slated to have a busman’s holiday, here in Dublin, and wasn’t it just her luck to stumble across a corpse in the St. Brigid’s School orchard. Stranger still, it looked to be a ritualistic revenge-murder, which—come to think of it—was exactly what they’d stumbled across the last time they’d visited Doyle’s home town. Who would have guessed that nasty revenge-murders were thick on the ground, here—save Acton, of course, since such a thing was usually his specialty. . .

thoroughly enjoyable

I hadn't read one of these for a while and appreciated the brief review of important characters. I know these are short but I can't quite resist the sometimes murderous inspector and the wife who tries to keep ahead of him.
