Death is now my neighbour by Colin Dexter

Just finished reading "Death is Now my Neighbour" by Colin Dexter, a Inspector Morse murder mystery. Morse and his assistant Lewis are on the trail of a murder of a woman and their prime suspect is her next door neighbour. Investigation progresses when another murder takes place in the same neighbourhood. Also suspects are two individuals who are contesting for the position of a Master at a Local college, which is supposedly a prestigious post for both of them. The plot unravels slowly and in between Morse has had to be confined to hospital for his usual health problem. Colin Dexter is a fascinating writer and i particularly liked the way in he introduced each chapter with a quotation from the classics or mundane which might or might not have been relevant to the case.
