Editor's Note:
Scotland Yardin rikostarkastaja Richard Jury tapaa elämänsä naisen, kauniin lesken Jane Holdsworthin. Seurustelu loppuu lyhyeen, kun Jane löytyy kotoaan kuolleena. Jury pidätetään virantoimituksesta, ja hänen on turvauduttava harrastaja-etsivänsä Melrose Plantin apuun. Melrose matkustaa Holdsworthien suvun kotikonnuille Järviseudulle. Hän pestautuu kirjastoon, kuinkas muuten, ollaanhan kuuluisten runoilijoiden kotiseudulla. Vähitellen selviää, ette Jane suinkaan ole sukunsa ainoa, jonka äkillisessä kuolemassa on jotain outoa. Mitä tapahtui Janen ex-miehelle, Grahamille, entä kokki Annielle?Lopulta myös rikostarkastaja Jury ja hänen apulaisensa pääsevät mukaan tutkimuksiin, jotka luontevasti keskittyvät Vanhat hylkiöt –pubiin ja vauraitten vanhusten eläkeläiskotiin Castle Hoween, jonka persoonalliset asukit aina äreästä Adam Holdsworthista alkoholisti-psykologiin Maurice Kingsleyhin tuottavat harmaita hiuksia Lontoon rikoseksperteille. Vähä vähältä menneisyyden verhot kahisevat auki – eikä näky ole mieltä ylentävä.Vanhat hylkiöt on paitsi jännittävä psykologinen rikosromaani myös humoristisen oivaltava ihmiskuvaus: Grimesilla on silmää yksityiskohdille ja taitoa siirtää ne paperille.
