Summary:

When Valerie Taylor, a promising Oxford schoolgirl, disappears without trace after leaving school one afternoon, Inspector Morse is confronted with a baffling mystery. Months pass with no progress until a series of cryptic letters suggests that the missing girl may still be alive. As Morse follows a trail of deception, hidden identities and academic intrigue, he uncovers a complex puzzle that tests his intellect to the limit.

Widely regarded as one of the strongest early entries in the Morse canon, Last Seen Wearing combines Dexter's trademark ingenuity, intricate plotting and atmospheric Oxford setting with the deductive brilliance that made Inspector Morse one of crime fiction's most enduring detectives.
