Adam Dalgliesh takes a break during the murder investigation for a picnic. He needs the time to think, and so he picnics.
Dalgliesh is utterly content, a moment of unusual peace in an otherwise hectic life. An hour south of Salisbury near Lulworth Cove, he stops. “There was an out of rocks, and he sat with one at his back and gazed out over the coppices to the wide blue stretch of the Channel. He had brought a picnic of French bread, cheese, and pate. Unscrewing a thermos of coffee, he hardly regretted the lack of wine.”
