There are so many small things that make this book great. One element that comes to mind is the feeling of true isolation that James is able to project in her description of Combe Island, the setting for nearly the entire book. Another is a joyful, small, yet terribly crucial moment when Sergeant Benton repels off a cliff in search of evidence, the first time he has done this since he was 14 and climbing with his famous mountaineer grandfather, who died shortly afterward. I'm convinced that this short passage is written with as much grace as is possible in any literary form.
The murders (two) at the heart of the book are real, urgent, and quite puzzling. But they are made to share space with the changes that come to people who are cut off from the mainland and are left with fewer people and more of their own thoughts and reflections to keep them company.
A final note: P.D. James has not let the grass grow under her feet when it comes to research. She shows a firm grasp of contagious medicine uses it to good effect as a subplot. I'm wary of saying any more about the plot because in this book, the journey is the pleasure.
