Opis
This celebratory collection brings together three of Ngaio Marsh's most captivating mysteries, showcasing her unparalleled skill in crafting intricate plots and rich characterizations. Readers are invited into the world of crime fiction, where the intriguing blend of suspense and wit unfolds in each cleverly woven tale.
In the first story, the reader is dragged into a dramatic theater production that becomes the backdrop for a chilling murder, compelling the characters—and the audience—to unravel the crime before the final curtain falls. Marsh’s ability to evoke the tension and excitement of the stage brilliantly heightens the stakes.
The second narrative shifts focus to a haunting atmosphere, where the shadow of death lingers amidst a funeral, prompting the protagonist to unravel a web of secrets hidden beneath the somber façade of grief.
Finally, a gripping hunt for a killer ensues in the third tale, as twists lead to unexpected revelations, ensuring that the reader remains on the edge of their seat. This collection is a testament to Marsh’s enduring legacy as the Empress of Crime.
