A mind to murder by PD James (1963) an interesting unexpected ending. The victim was a Guide Captain.
(The second book in the Inspector Adam Dalgliesh series)
When the administrative head of the Steen Psychiatric Clinic is found  dead with a chisel in her heart, Superintendent Adam Dalgliesh of  Scotland Yard is called in to investigate. Dalgliesh must analyze the  deep-seated anxieties and thwarted desires of patients and staff alike  to determine which of their unresolved conflicts resulted in murder.
With "discernment, depth, and craftsmanship," wrote the Chicago Daily News,  A Mind to Murder "is a superbly satisfying mystery."
