NONE SO BLIND (Book 4): A British Detective Crime Thriller by Carolyn Mahony
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Five years ago in a traffic accident, her husband was killed and she, wealthy Barbara Harding was left blind. Now she has been killed, but by whom and why. DI Harry Brimscombe and his team investigate.
Too much about certain characters and drugs and other activities, not enough about the murders.
Overall, enjoyable enough modern mystery
