Martha Grimes: The Anodyne Necklace (USA 2013)

From the Publisher:
The third in the bestselling Richard Jury mystery series by Martha Grimes.
A spinster whose passion was bird-watching, a dotty peer who pinched pennies, and a baffling murder made the tiny village of Littlebourne a most extraordinary place. And a severed finger made a ghastly clue in the killing that led local constables from a corpse to a boggy footpath to a beautiful lady's mansion.

But Richard Jury refused, preferring to take the less traveled route to a slightly disreputable pub, the Anodyne Necklace. There, drinks all around loosened enough tongues to link a London mugging with the Littlebourne murder and a treasure map that would chart the way to yet another chilling crime.

Scotland Yard's Richard Jury solves a bizarre murder -- in an even stranger town...

A bird-watching spinster and a penny-pinching peer may give Littlebourne its eccentric reputation, but it's murder that puts the tiny village on the map. A stray dog is found gnawing on a bone...that turns out to be a finger -- one of many missing from a corpse discovered in a nearby stream. Richard Jury is called to the scene, but it's in a shabby East End pub, The Anodyne Necklace, where he links the Littlebourne murder with a mugging in London -- and with a treasure map that leads him to yet another chilling crime...
