Snuff

A holiday, a corpse and a copper who never switches off.
Reading guide
The publisher notes that the Discworld novels can be read in any order, and this book is the eighth City Watch novel, but it reads perfectly well on its own.
Commander Sam Vimes of the Ankh-Morpork City Watch is sent to the countryside for a holiday, which he regards as a kind of punishment. He barely has time to unpack before he finds a body, and the quiet estates around him conceal something far worse than a single murder. Out of his jurisdiction, he must find a way to uncover the truth.

Description

Snuff is the thirty-ninth Discworld novel and the eighth in the City Watch sequence, following Commander Sam Vimes of Ankh-Morpork. Terry Pratchett's books are known for their inventive world and their jokes, and this one is no exception. The publisher notes that the Discworld novels can be read in any order, and our shop description says this book reads perfectly well on its own.

Beneath the comedy, the book carries a fierce anger at cruelty and a firm belief that justice should reach everyone. Readers who like their satire sharp and their humour with a conscience will find a lot to enjoy here.
