Why read it?
1 author picked Pictures of Perfection as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I very much doubt that Reginald Hill intended Pictures of Perfection to appear on a Best M/M list! It’s a quintessentially English tale with a backdrop of class-based snobbery and the threat to rural life from development. It’s also the sole book in Hill’s Dalziel and Pascoe mystery series wherein Hill’s gay detective sergeant, Edgar Wield, takes centre stage.

From Jude's list on M/M for asexuals.
