Paperback. Etat : Good. When battlefield nurse Bess Crawford returns from France for a well-earned Christmas leave, she finds a bruised and shivering woman huddled in the doorway of her London flat. Realizing that the woman has nowhere to turn, Bess offers her shelter. When she feels safer, the woman reveals her name and that she has fled from her husband, an officer on leave, who struck her during a terrible quarrel. Still frightened, she will not return to her small village in Sussex unless Bess accompanies her. Every day of leave is precious, for Bess plans to visit her family. But concern and a firm sense of duty compel the independent and compassionate nurse to be certain the woman is safe. But once she arrives at the woman's house, Bess is unsettled by the tense atmosphere, which seems to permeate the very walls.

Etat : Good. "A stunner, exquisitely plotted and characterized, with Todd's trademark meticulous backdrop of World War I-era England."-Strand Magazine The Great War is still raging when Francesca Hatton's adored grandfather dies on the family estate in England's isolated Exe Valley. Among his effects, Francesca is stunned to find an unsigned letter cursing the Hattons and their descendants. Then a stranger appears, accusing her grandfather of murder. Was the loving protector Francesca remembers really a vindictive man who cultivated dangerous enemies? At the center of the intrigue is an unusual white stone hidden in a garden where Francesca once played with her five male cousins-all dead now on France's battlefields. According to Hatton's will, the Murder Stone must be dug up, transported to Scotland, and buried forever. But before Francesca can begin the journey, a series of ominous "accidents" occur. As Francesca sets out to pursue the truth, she also sets herself in the sights of someone determined to exact a revenge too long overdue.

Etat : Very Good. "Stunning . . . the tragic sweep of Todd's historical mysteries grows more expansive with each novel."-The New York Times Book Review Called out into the teeth of a violent blizzard, Inspector IanRutledge faces one of the most savage murders he's everencountered. He might have expected such unspeakable carnage on the World War I battlefields where he'd lost much of his soul-and his sanity-but not in an otherwise peaceful farm kitchen in remote Urskdale. Someone has murdered the Elcott family without the least sign of struggle. But when the victims are tallied, the local police are in for another shock: One child is missing. Now the Inspector must race to save a young boy before he's silenced by the merciless elements-or the even colder hands of the killer who hides in the blinding snow. Praise for A Cold Treachery "Todd's Ian Rutledge mysteries are among the most intelligent and affecting being written these days."-Washington Post Book World "Brilliant."-Chicago Tribune "Traditional mystery lovers who prefer their whodunits enriched with psychological insight will heartily embrace A Cold Treachery. . . . A superb effort."-Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Brilliantly conceived and elegantlyexecuted."-Strand magazine.…
