Cracow, 1893. Zofia Turbotyńska—professor’s wife and socialite—is bored at home, with little to do but plan a charity auction sponsored by the wealthy residents of a local nursing home and the nuns who work there. But when one of those residents is found dead, Zofia finds a calling: solving crimes. Ridiculed by the police, who have declared the deaths of natural cause, she starts her own murder investigation. With her husband blissfully unaware of her secret, Zofia remakes herself into Cracow’s greatest—or at the very least, most surprising—amateur detective.

“An ingenious marriage of comedy and crime” (Olga Tokarczuk, Nobel Laureate): When amateur sleuth and cunning socialite Zofia Turbotyńska’s beloved maid goes missing, she dives deep into Cracow’s web of crime, with only her trusted cook for company.

The biggest event in the Catholic calendar is a disaster in Zofia Turbotyńska’s household. Her maid, Karolina, has handed in her notice and worse, gone missing. When Karolina’s body is discovered, violated and stabbed, Zofia knows she has to investigate.

UN MARIAGE INGÉNIEUX ENTRE LA COMÉDIE ET LE POLAR. Première aventure de cette Miss Marple à la polonaise, « Madame Mohr a disparu » mélange pastiche hilarant et satire bourgeoise. Un cosy crime plein d'humour et de suspense, à la croisée baroque de Wes Anderson et d'Agatha Christie.

Cracovia, nel 1893, non offre granché se sei una donna che non si accontenta dei ruoli assegnati dai tempi correnti. E a Zofia, trentotto anni, moglie avveduta di un professore universitario, gran consumatrice di specchi nelle migliori boutique e dispensatrice di convenevoli sulla via per il mercato, la sola veste di perfetta padrona di casa comincia a stare stretta. È così che si mette in testa di primeggiare nella raccolta fondi dell'imminente lotteria di beneficenza, la cui riuscita necessita del patrocinio delle ricche residenti di Casa Helcel, luogo di riposo gestito dalle suore.
