Condizione: Very Good. "Stunning . . . the tragic sweep of Todd's historical mysteries grows more expansive with each novel."-The New York Times Book Review Called out into the teeth of a violent blizzard, Inspector IanRutledge faces one of the most savage murders he's everencountered.

Someone has murdered the Elcott family without the least sign of struggle. But when the victims are tallied, the local police are in for another shock: One child is missing. Now the Inspector must race to save a young boy before he's silenced by the merciless elements-or the even colder hands of the killer who hides in the blinding snow.

A superb effort."-Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Brilliantly conceived and elegantlyexecuted."-Strand magazine.…

Paperback. Condizione: Fair. Don't miss the first book in the critically acclaimed Inspector Ian Rutledge series It's 1919, and the "War to End All Wars" has been won. But there is no peace for Scotland Yard inspector Ian Rutledge, recently returned from the battlefields of France shell-shocked and tormented by the ever-present voice of the young Scot he had executed for refusing an order. Escaping into his work to save his sanity, Rutledge investigates the murder of a popular colonel in Warwickshire and his alleged killer, a decorated war hero and close friend of the Prince of Wales. The case is a political minefield, and its resolution could mean the end of Rutledge's career. Win or lose, the cost may be more than the damaged investigator can bear. For the one witness who can break the case open is, like Rutledge, a war-ravaged victim . . . and his grim, shattered fate could well prove to be the haunted investigator's own.…
