The Jewel That Was Ours is the ninth novel in the Oxford-set
detective series from Colin Dexter, the winner of the CWA Silver
Dagger Award. He looked overweight around the midriff, though
nowhere else, and she wondered whether perhaps he drank too much.
He looked weary, as if he had been up most of the night conducting
his investigations . . . For Oxford, the arrival of twenty-seven
American tourists is nothing out of the ordinary . . . until one of
their number is found dead in Room 310 at the Randolph Hotel. It
looks like a sudden – and tragic – accident. Only Chief
Inspector Morse appears not to overlook the simultaneous theft of a
jewel-encrusted antique from the victim's handbag. Two days later,
a naked and battered corpse is dragged from the River Cherwell. A
coincidence? Maybe. But this time Morse is determined to prove the
link . . . The Jewel That Was Ours is followed by the tenth
Inspector Morse book, The Way Through the Woods.
