Summary
Distracted from her duty by her recent miscarriage and split with her partner, Matthew, Joanna is battling through this painful emotional period alone. She finds solace in her work, yet her focus and coherency are out of sync. She resorts to formulaic solutions to resolve her cases, having seen the same situations time and again. So when Arthur Pennington enters her office in a state of confused distress and reports that his wife, Beatrice, is missing, Joanna does not reciprocate with the same emotion. Convinced that his wife is merely involved in an extra-marital affair, Joanna is dismissive of Arthur's concerns. But when Beatrice's strangled body is discovered recklessly dumped on the Leek moorlands, she is forced to revaluate her stance.
Unbeknown to even her closest family, Beatrice had been harbouring a secret and dangerously obsessive infatuation, which stemmed from her deep-rooted insecurities and low self esteem. And Joanna knows well that unrequited love can not only be hurtful, but fatal!
Continuing the DI Joanna Piercy mystery series, Wings over the Watcher delves deep within the complex puzzle of the female psyche, examining the warped impact marital neglect can have on a woman's mental stability.

Wings over the Watcher
What could Priscilla Masters have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?
She appears to have a very shaky grasp of police procedure, for some that wouldn't be an issue but as ex job it grated on me. Perhaps she should learn more to help with the portrayal of the police
Any additional comments?
A good tale, well read but with big errors in the way the police operate. This is a personal niggle so hopefully wont put off anybody else in listening to it. If however you know a thing or two about procedure, you will be irritated. A minor gripe.

Far too long winded
It took nearly half the book to get started and I almost gave up. I persevered and wished I had not bothered. I have enjoyed Priscilla Masters other books, but I will not be looking for another in this series.
