When a bomb claims the life of John May's detective partner of more than half a century, May becomes convinced that the key to the killer's identity lies in their first case together, which involved a steamy theater production in Blitz London.

Su questo libro

Recensione:

"An absolutely riveting account of London during the Blitz."—Booklist

"Atmospheric, hugely beguiling and as filled with tricks and sleights of hand as a magician's sleeve...it is English gothic at its eccentric best; a combination of Ealing comedy and grand opera: witty, charismatic, occasionally touching and with a genuine power to thrill." —Joanne Harris, author of Chocolat

"A first class thriller, but don't expect any sleep." —Sunday Telegraph

"The writing is as ever fluid and pacey, the characterization deft and the plot fresh and ingenious." —Independent on Sunday?

"The intrigues of the theater murders, which decimate the cast, create considerable drama..... The dynamic between May and Bryant makes for compelling reading"—Publishers Weekly

L'autore:

Christopher Fowler is the acclaimed author of eleven novels. He lives in London, where he is at work on the next Bryant & May mystery, The Water Room, which Bantam will publish in 2005.?
