P.D. James, and English crime writer, passed away this past November at the age of 94 with over 20 novels under her belt (many of which have been serialized into movies and TV shorts) and countless awards to boot. Without any introduction really being necessary, I think one can easily deduce that P.D. James was a very accomplished writer and woman of her generation. Of those books that were adapted to film, you can now collect the series that follows James’ fictitious creation, Adam Dalgliesh, in the P.D. James: The Essential Collection (15 DVDs) from Amazon.ca, now only $45.99 (was $149.99).

The Essential Collection of P.D. James follows 9 different mysteries, all spread throughout 15 different DVDs with a total running time of 2075 minutes. The box set stars Roy Marsden as Adam Dalgiesh (one of the central protagonists that reoccurs throughout James’ novels) and is adapted from 9 of her most popular mystery books, including:

• Death of an Expert Witness
• Shroud for a Nightingale
• Cover Her Face
• The Black Tower
• A Taste for Death
• Devices and Desires
• Unnatural Causes
• A Mind for Murder
• Original Sin

The P.D. James: The Essential Collection is an excellent series, that pays tribute to an even greater writer. Even the reviews on Amazon.ca can’t get over the genius and wit behind James’ fiction.

Amazon.ca will also offer free-shipping on this order since it is above $25.
