Recensione:

"Perry scores again with a major Victorian thriller . . . A tribute to master plotter Agatha Christie for its ingenuity."
--Chicago Sun-Times

"Perry is generous with colorful period details about daily life as it was lived at the end of the century. . . . She is even more remarkable at shaping historical events . . . into a piece of fiction that offers both a satisfactory mystery to solve and a grave social injustice."
--The New York Times Book Review

"YOU CAN COUNT ON A PERRY TALE TO BE SUPERIOR."
--San Diego Union-Tribune

"THE DENOUEMENT IS A SHOCK."
--Los Angeles Times
From the Paperback edition.

L'autore:

Among Anne Perry's other novels featuring Thomas and Charlotte Pitt are Brunswick Gardens, Ashworth Hall, Pentecost Alley, Traitors Gate, and The Hyde Park Headsman. She also writes the popular novels featuring Victorian private investigator William Monk--among them A Breach of Promise, The Silent Cry, Weighed in the Balance, Cain His Brother, and Defend and Betray. "Her grasp of Victorian character and conscience still astonishes," said the Cleveland Plain Dealer. Hundreds of thousands of readers agree.
Anne Perry lives in Scotland.
