Beskrivning

An Expert in Murder is the first in a new series that features Golden Age crime writer Josephine Tey as its lead character, placing her in the richly-peopled world of 1930s theatre which formed the other half of her writing life. It's March 1934, and Tey is travelling from Scotland to London to celebrate what should be the triumphant final week of her celebrated play, Richard of Bordeaux. However, a seemingly senseless murder puts her reputation, and even her life, under threat. An Expert in Murder is both a tribute to one of the most enduringly popular writers of crime and an atmospheric detective novel in its own right.

'The arrival of a new and assured talent is always a pleasure for aficionados of the classical detective story...To be able to evoke a fictional world which is at the same time totally believable is a rare talent and Nicola Upson is to be congratulated on this the first of what promises to be a distinguished series.' - P. D. James'Nicola Upson's clever and evocative debut novel...this novelist certainly has the prose and the nous.' - Guardian
