At Scotland Yard, Inspector Grant has a reputation for being able to pick them at sight. Now he is in hospital, knowing that no amount of good behaviour is going to make this anything less than an extended stay. Yet his professional curiosity is soon aroused. In a portrait of Richard III, the hunchbacked monster of nursery stories and history books, he finds a face that refuses to fit its reputation. But how, after four hundred years, can a bedridden policeman uncover the truth about the murder of the Princes in the Tower?

Josephine Tey is one of the best-known and best-loved of all crime writers. She began to write full-time after the successful publication of her first novel, The Man in the Queue (1929), which introduced Inspector Grant of Scotland Yard. In 1937 she returned to crime writing with A Shilling for Candles, but it wasn't until after the Second World War that the majority of her crime novels were published. Josephine Tey died in 1952, leaving her entire estate to the National Trust.

Etat : Fair. : En esta novela de misterio, el inspector Alan Grant de Scotland Yard, recuperándose de una pierna rota, se siente fascinado por un retrato contemporáneo de Ricardo III que no se parece en nada al malvado tío de la historia. ¿Podría un rostro tan sensible y noble pertenecer realmente a uno de los villanos más atroces del mundo, un jorobado venenoso que pudo haber matado a los hijos de su hermano para asegurar su corona? ¿O podría Ricardo haber sido la víctima, convertido en un monstruo por los usurpadores del trono de Inglaterra? Grant decide averiguar de una vez por todas, con la ayuda del Museo Británico y un erudito estadounidense, qué clase de hombre era realmente Ricardo Plantagenet y quién mató a los pequeños príncipes en la Torre.
