Acerca deste libro electrónico

Following the success of The Shape of Sand, shortlisted for the CWA Historical Dagger award, comes this dramatic story of love, war and intrigue. It is 1910 and the bloodstained body of an unknown woman is found in the grounds of Sir Henry Chetwynd's Shropshire estate. It is a murder that unveils dark shadows of the past, and has an unexpected impact on the lives of Sir Henry Chetwynd and his family. But it is not only the Chetwynds whose lives lie under a shadow: Hannah, living in London, has lost part of her memory after being involved in a serious accident. As she attempts to piece together the fragments of those missing years, it seems that the ongoing murder investigation in Shropshire could hold the key, and finally allow her to bring the past and present strands of her life together. Switching between the troubled South Africa in the last years of the nineteenth century and the mysterious murder in Shropshire ten years later, Marjorie Eccles' delicate narrative reveals the lies and deceptions concealed beneath the veneer of polite Edwardian society.

Acerca do autor

MARJORIE ECCLES was born in Yorkshire and has since spent some time on the Northumbrian coast; both locations have influenced her writing. Her well-known Gill Mayo series was set in the Black Country and her two latest books, Killing A Unicorn and Echoes of Silence, were set in her native Yorkshire. Altogether Marjorie has written mainly crime novels, but also some romantic fiction. Outside of writing, Marjorie's enjoyment comes from reading, listening to music and gardening.
