You'll be hard pushed to find another crime writer with his verve ... Hill uses every trick in his arsenal to elucidate. The result is an epic, unbeatable mystery' Financial Times 'A big, fat mystery which has the enduring power of a myth ... Hill proves once again that the driving force of a successful crime novel is character, not incident ... The heights of the Dalziel & Pascoe series aside, Hill has never written a better book' Evening Standard 'Reginald Hill's books are as good as crime fiction gets and this one is as good as he gets ... A tragic, funny standalone mystery ... History is rewritten with brilliant originality and verve. The combination of wit and humanity is characteristic of this most inventive of crime novelists - warmly recommended' Literary Review 'Hill's plotting is brilliant, the jokes first-rate, the prose supple: it's his humble awe at the English language that enables him to be a minor master of it' Daily Telegraph 'To give more of plot would be to destroy the great pleasure this complex and accomplished novel offers ... Added to his colourful prose and involving narrative are acute psychological insights, beautifully realized characters and landscapes, an examination of the nature of justice, political rage, humour and enough word games to keep any bookish crossword-puzzler happy for hours ... The Woodcutter combines romance, fairy tale and tragedy in one of the most gripping crime novels of the past few years' TLS Read more About the Author Reginald Hill is a native of Cumbria and former resident of Yorkshire, the setting for his novels featuring Superintendent Dalziel and DCI Pascoe, `the best detective duo on the scene bar none' (`Daily Telegraph').

Hill is really in a league of his own and I loved this book as I have loved all his others. I am a big fan of the Dalziel and Pascoe series and have read them all multiple times. Others have summarized the plot, so I'm just here to shower praise where praise is due. If you enjoy a complex, beautifully written mystery, high suspense, and where all the ends end up tied, you will enjoy this. If you're taste trends more towards lots of high octaine action, you should still read this because it's a great mystery. I find Hill to be pretty incomparable to other authors, and the closest i would find is Minette Walters - also a fine mystery writer - but, Hill came first. Now it's time to download the books I somehow missed. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Another Brilliant Stand Alone from Hill *by A***N on February 1, 2012* Reginald Hill is best known for his serial police procedurals featuring Dalziel and Pascoe. I am a fan of his stand-alone novels, beginning with The Stranger House and avidly sought ever since that first immersive reading.The Woodcutter is a story of tragedy and revenge that mirrors the classic Count of Monte Cristo. Wolf is a self-made man who has been robbed of everything he worked for, including his family and has spent a decade in prison for financial crimes and for child pornography charges. We first meet him with his prison psychologist who is attempting to extract confession and redemption. Wolf obliges her and it is to Hill's credit that even though the reader knows that Wolf cannot possibly be guilty of the crimes he is accused of, we still wonder. Wolf is an embittered man and he seeks revenge on those who robbed him of his fortune, his life, his wife and his reputation. Foremost in that list is his wife: was she complicit in his downfall? And how will Wolf deal with his still ambivalent feelings for Imogen, she is after all his first and most powerful love and he became the success he was in order to win and keep her. Will Wolf become the villain he is suspected of being in the course of seeking his revenge?The answers to these questions makes for a stunning and complex read that pays homage to the classic but is a brilliant work taken on its own merits. This is a psychologically complex work and meant for adults and as such includes violence and sex but in a manner that is required by the plot. Highly recommended to readers of literature as well as mystery. An astounding last accomplishment by the late Reginald Hill who died early this year. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fabulous *by C***Y on September 12, 2017* I've not recovered from "this book" yet and it's over a week now.It ranks in my top 3 novels. The writing was fab and I don't especially like British authors too much English verbiage but I managed cause it was worth it. So well written but it took me into well third of the book to get a jist it. Writing superb story like I've never read before. Wolf Hadda stole my heart, he is so smart and strong and revenge for me is so sweet. Would like more Wolf don't think that's possible. Satisfying. Could have read another 400 pages. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pl/products/83600521-woodcutter-paperback-march-1-2011](https://www.desertcart.pl/products/83600521-woodcutter-paperback-march-1-2011) --- *Product available on Desertcart Poland* *Store origin: PL* *Last updated: 2026-05-13*
