Unholy Murder starts out with the discovery of a coffin buried on a building site. When the body is found to have died and been buried under less than natural causes, Detective Sergeant Jane Tennison must put the pieces together to figure out who done it. I entirely enjoyed the start of this book. I am not familiar with the other books featuring our protagonist but I felt this was perfect as a stand-alone novel. The setup is traditional for a British detective mystery, and I like that style quite a bit. I am intrigued to find out what happened to the poor woman in the coffin and why the backhoe operator was so anxious to continue digging. Overall, seems like a nice start to a mystery.
