Very sad to hear that Reginald Hill has died. Although I didn't talk about them much here, I absolutely loved Dalziel and Pascoe and the rest of the Mid-Yorks crew. Such good detective stories - gripping, well-written, with utterly believable characters, and the ability to explore very dark things without losing a sense of humour - which is, after all, one of the ways of coping with the darkness.
