An audacious kidnapping, a high-speed chase and dramatic rescue are well-traveled features of a run-of-the-mill screenplay, except that the kidnappee and the Grassalot colony are humanoid size, talking grasshoppers; the "hoppernappers" are a raunchy bunch of college kids; and the high speed chase stretches from New Mexico to New York City.DCI Barbara Black investigates the curious death of Adrian Mansfield, an artistic young man cast adrift in a boat on Amberton lake. He has been tied into a sitting position with an insulting sign hung about his neck. Murder is assumed, but Barbara's investigations take us into escalating family tragedy and Adrian's dark, antinatalist philosophy. No-one seems surprised that Adrian has died. He was, we learn, obsessed with his dead sister, a talented young writer, who took her own life a few years earlier. So, indeed, is Martha Bottomley, a retired social worker and friend of the family, who has, according to Barbara's sergeant, a morbid interest in the deaths of young people. Philosophical and thought-provoking detective fiction - a why rather than whodunnit.
