Présentation de l'éditeur
After the death of his wife Robert Turold, a hard and bitter man, is just one step away from proving his noble linage and claim to a great estate. This is his life-long dream and the last obstacle to achieving it is his despised daughter Sisily, whom he intends to disinherit. But just as he is about to reach his dream he is found shot dead in a room locked from the inside. The mysterious death may look like a suicide at first but Detective Barrant and Inspector Dawfield suspect that the truth is more complicated and are determined to solve the puzzle.
This fast-paced detective story unfolds through a tangled skein of complicated family ties and secrets, suspicious servants, and a mysterious Cornish legend.
The Moon Rock was first published in 1922.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book traces the quest of Robert Turold, a man with a singular obsession to restore a long-lost title of nobility to his family. After decades of research, he uncovers the missing pieces of his ancestral lineage, proving his descent from a medieval baron and establishing his claim to the peerage. However, as Robert prepares to take his place among the elite, a shocking revelation emerges: his daughter, Sisily, is illegitimate. The author explores the tension between Robert's relentless pursuit of his ambition and the consequences it holds for his family. The disclosure of Sisily's status threatens to cast a shadow over the newly acquired title, raising questions about the morality of sacrificing personal relationships for the sake of social status. Through the lens of the Turold family, the book delves into themes of ambition, duty, and the complexities of familial bonds. It examines the impact of historical events and societal expectations on individuals, offering a poignant and thought-provoking meditation on the choices we make in life. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
