À propos de cet audio

 Adam Dalgliesh takes on a baffling murder in the rarefied world of London book publishing in this masterful mystery from one of our finest novelists. • Part of the bestselling mystery series that inspired Dalgliesh on Acorn TV

“Complex and compelling.... James is writing in full mastery of her craft.”—The New York Times Book Review

Commander Adam Dalgliesh and his team are confronted with a puzzle of impenetrable complexity. A murder has taken place in the offices of the Peverell Press, a venerable London publishing house located in a dramatic mock-Venetian palace on the Thames. The victim is Gerard Etienne, the brilliant but ruthless new managing director, who had vowed to restore the firm's fortunes. Etienne was clearly a man with enemies—a discarded mistress, a rejected and humiliated author, and rebellious colleagues, one of who apparently killed herself a short time earlier. Yet Etienne's death, which occurred under bizarre circumstances, is for Dalgliesh only the beginning of the mystery, as he desperately pursues the search for a killer prepared to strike and strike again.

These stories are intricate , imaginative and detailed. When it all comes together it is satisfying like a wonderful meal.

P.D. James is magnificent.

I had been so looking forward to the PD James novels - one of the reasons I got Audible. But the narrator is so terrible! All the whiney women's voices. I made my way through this because I bought it but really, Penelope Dellaporta has spoiled this whole Audible series and I won;t be able to listen.

if it weren't for the narrator
