From the well-known author whose books inspired the wildly popular Murdoch Mysteries TV series, comes the third WWII-era DI Tom Tyler mystery; for fans of Foyle's War, wartime dramas, and, of course, Maureen Jennings!
It's summer, 1942, and after a tough couple of years, DI Tom Tyler is making a fresh start in Ludlow, Shropshire. On the outskirts of town, St. Anne's Convalescent Hospital, staffed by nursing sisters who are Anglican nuns, has been established in an old manor house to help victims of the war to recover. After a horrifying double murder is discovered on the grounds, Tyler must figure out how the crime could have occurred in such a secluded and presumably impenetrable place, where most of the patients are unable to walk or are blind, or both, not to mention deeply traumatized.
To add to the puzzle, Tyler begins almost immediately to receive mysterious letters recounting terrible crimes far away. He realizes that he is not only seeking the murderer, but that the horrors of the war are closing in on this place that was meant to be a refuge.
Maureen Jennings, beloved author of the Murdoch novels that inspired the popular TV series (known as The Artful Detective in the US), surpasses herself in this vivid portrayal of wartime Britain, brilliantly blending a classic murder mystery with a deeply human story of how the effects of war live on far from the fields of battle.

Third book in the series...
By Jill Meyer
Readers of mysteries know that there are different styles within the genre. One of those are the "murders done in a confined space and almost anyone can be the murderer (and the victim, come to that!); sort of like "Murder on the Orient Express". "No Known Grave", by Maureen Jennings, is the third in her "Tom Tyler" series and offers exactly that plot and a similar cast of potential victims and murderers.
The "Tom Tyler" series is set in WW2 England. I have not read the first two - though I think I will do so - but the protagonist is a "Great War" veteran who is working as a country policeman during the war years. He has moved to a small town, Ludlow, and in his third day in town and on the job, he is called in to investigate a murder of a blind man and his son at a convalescent hospital. Among the patients at this closed hospital are men and women grievously wounded in the war - either in battle or in bombing raids at home. Most of the patients are blinded and amputees; they are being cared for at a "stately home" set up to provide recovery services. The convalescent home is run by an order of Anglican Sisters, who are also nurses.
Jennings does an excellent job at setting up her time and place. St Anne's, the secluded home, is distant enough from the battles and bombings, but close enough to the emotional anguish and physical frailties that the war has brought. Why are such disparate people as the blind father and his son and the old nursing nun cut down in violent fashion? What do a series of letters sent to Tom Tyler describing massacres in an unnamed place, where the murdered "have no graves", do with the these murders?
"No Known Grave" is a good look at war-time England where police work still needs to be done. Maureen Jennings has written a good, insightful mystery.

Murder in the midst of the severely disabled
By Patto
This is an amazing setting for a murder mystery – a World War II hospital run by Anglican nuns who are nursing shell-shocked patients with horrible scars and mutilations. Some are in wheelchairs. Some are blind. Most are severely traumatized. We get to know them all when Detective Inspector Tom Tyler arrives to investigate the murder of a staff member and one of his sons.
Sergeant McHattie was gassed and blinded in the Great War. He was a good man teaching some of the patients massage, which it was hoped might be a viable career for them. Tyler finds it hard to imagine why anyone would want to kill the man, let alone kill his teenage son. When more tragedies ensue, Tyler is really stumped.
The atmosphere of the hospital, and the personalities of the nuns, are all very fascinating. Among the many constables, one is particularly interesting – a young woman who drives a motorcycle at maniacal speeds, speaks with an upper crust accent, and shows promise as a detective. Women were new to the police force at that time, and even the liberal-minded Tyler is not always sure how to treat her.
A romance blossoms among the disfigured patients, and this is a charming diversion.
Although I found the motive for the crimes a bit astounding, I enjoyed the investigation and got very caught up in the experiences of the characters.

A real page turner!
By Macs mom
Terrific book. Great plot and a wonderful rendering of an awful incident in WWII history. Jennings characters are well drawn and as the Globe and Mail said, it does remind you of Foyle's War--how the incidents of the battlefield reach back into the homefront. Set in a hospital for badly scarred (both emotionally and physically) patients in Ludlow run by Anglican nuns, the story centers on three murders and a kidnapping and reaches a climax in a Norman era church, tied up neatly with a twisted plot involving the assassination of Reinhart Heydrich and the murders in a razing of the town of Lidice in Czechoslovakia by the Gestapo in retaliation.
