L'inspecteur Grant est dépêché par Scotland Yard à Milford pour aider la police locale à démêler une sombre histoire de kidnapping. Marion Sharpe et sa mère sont accusées d'avoir enlevé et battu Betty Kane, une orpheline de guerre de 16 ans. Pour assumer leur défense, les Sharpe font bientôt appel à l'avocat Robert Blair qui, bien qu'étranger d'ordinaire aux affaires criminelles, accepte de leur venir en aide, ce qui ne va pas sans causer quelques frictions avec la police pendant l'enquête et le procès.

Josephine Tey. The Daughter of Time, Джозефіна Тей. Донька часу

Peu après la découverte d'un cadavre sur la plage, la nouvelle est sur toutes les lèvres : Christine Clay, l'actrice au renom international, a été retrouvée noyée. Mais est-ce vraiment un accident ? Connaissant l'entourage de la victime, rien n'est moins sûr : mari volage, frère cupide et amant présumé, les suspects ne manquent pas. Sans compter qu'elle hébergeait depuis quelques jours un jeune inconnu à qui elle a légué un héritage important. Pour résoudre une affaire aussi complexe, il faudra bien tout le doigté de l'inspecteur Alan Grant, appelé en renfort depuis Scotland Yard.

 

 
Un classique de la littérature policière, signé par la Reine écossaise du crime (auteure de La Fille du temps) et adapté au cinéma par Hitchcock, à redécouvrir d'urgence.

 

 
Traduction d'Hélène et Paul Le Duff, revue et corrigée par Natalie Beunat

Jeune et innocent

Scotland Yard Inspector Alan Grant is intrigued by a portrait of Richard III. Could such a sensitive face actually belong to a heinous villain — a king who killed his brother's children to secure his crown? Grant seeks what kind of man Richard was and who in fact killed the princes in the tower.

Josephine Tey. The Daughter of Time, Джозефина Тэй. Дочь времени

Voted the top crime novel of all time by the UK Crime Writers' Association, The Daughter of Time is Josephine Tey's last and most successful book. Complete and unabridged. Part of the Macmillan Collector's Library; a series of stunning, clothbound, pocket-sized classics with gold foiled edges and ribbon markers. These beautiful books make perfect gifts or a treat for any book lover. This edition is introduced by writer David Stuart Davies. Inspector Alan Grant is laid up in hospital with a spinal injury and he's bored. Renowned for his ability to read a face, he passes the time looking at old portraits and one which particularly grabs his attention is of Richard III, the supposed arch villain who killed his own nephews, 'the princes in the tower'. But Grant doesn't accept the face in the portrait is the face of a villain so he sets out to investigate what really happened. An unusual premise for a crime novel perhaps, but nevertheless an extremely clever and engrossing one, brilliantly plotted and written with enormous charm and erudition.
