About this Item

nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - A solitary manor stands shrouded in fog, its silent corridors holding secrets that chill the air and unsettle even the most rational mind. Within these walls, a crime has shattered the fragile calm of the English countryside, drawing together a cast of suspects whose motives are as shadowy as the night itself. This is crime fiction at its most intricate, where every whispered conversation and half-glimpsed gesture deepens the mystery and heightens the suspense. Set against the backdrop of the 1930s, the narrative unfolds with the measured precision of a golden age detective story, inviting readers to match wits with an amateur sleuth who must untangle a web of deception before the murderer strikes again.The atmosphere is thick with unease, yet the story remains grounded in the subtle interplay of character and motive, offering the pleasures of a classic whodunit without resorting to melodrama. The investigation is methodical, yet never plodding, as each clue is revealed with a deft touch that rewards attentive reading. Lovers of vintage crime will appreciate the balance of tension and wit, while those drawn to the British mystery tradition will find much to admire in the interplay of social nuance and psychological insight. The suspense fiction here is not merely a puzzle to be solved, but an invitation to inhabit a world where every detail matters and justice hangs in the balance.This book was out of print for decades and is now republished by Alpha Editions.

Synopsis

A solitary manor stands shrouded in fog, its silent corridors holding secrets that chill the air and unsettle even the most rational mind. Within these walls, a crime has shattered the fragile calm of the English countryside, drawing together a cast of suspects whose motives are as shadowy as the night itself. This is crime fiction at its most intricate, where every whispered conversation and half-glimpsed gesture deepens the mystery and heightens the suspense. Set against the backdrop of the 1930s, the narrative unfolds with the measured precision of a golden age detective story, inviting readers to match wits with an amateur sleuth who must untangle a web of deception before the murderer strikes again. The atmosphere is thick with unease, yet the story remains grounded in the subtle interplay of character and motive, offering the pleasures of a classic whodunit without resorting to melodrama. The investigation is methodical, yet never plodding, as each clue is revealed with a deft touch that rewards attentive reading. Lovers of vintage crime will appreciate the balance of tension and wit, while those drawn to the British mystery tradition will find much to admire in the interplay of social nuance and psychological insight.
