Inspector Morse is dying. He knows it, and he's got one last case to close before the end — a year-old murder in the village of Burford that's never sat right with him. A woman found dead in her cottage, a botched investigation, and a nagging sense that the wrong man was cleared. As Morse revisits witness statements and old grudges, his body is failing him. Strange Lewis watches his mentor unravel the threads of the case while coming apart himself, the two investigations — into murder and mortality — running side by side. Colin Dexter's final Morse novel is elegiac, melancholic, and deeply human. It's a farewell that earns its weight, closing the door on one of British crime fiction's most beloved characters with quiet dignity. For anyone who's followed Morse through Oxford's dreaming spires, this is the goodbye you didn't want but couldn't look away from.
