A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

New Year's Eve, 1940, is unusual for the Paradine family. Departing from tradition, James Paradine makes a speech that changes the course of many lives. Valuable documents have disappeared. A member of the family has taken them. The culprit has until midnight to confess and return the papers.

A few minutes after twelve James Paradine is dead.

It is left to Miss Silver to disentangle the threads that bind the Paradine family in a strange web of dislike, hatred and fear.

Revue de presse :

Miss Silver has her place in detective fiction as surely as Lord Peter Wimsey or Hercule Poirot (Manchester Evening News)

Wentworth is a first-rate storyteller (Daily Telegraph)

Miss Silver is marvellous (Daily Mail)

. . . some of the best examples of the British country-house murder mystery (Alfred Hitchcock Magazine)

You can't go wrong with Miss Maud Silver. (Observer)
