About this product

Product Information

Voted the top crime novel of all time by the UK Crime Writer's Association, The Daughter of Time is Josephine Tey's last and most successful book. Complete and unabridged. Part of the Macmillan Collector's Library; a series of stunning, clothbound, pocket-sized classics with gold foiled edges and ribbon markers. These beautiful books make perfect gifts or a treat for any book lover. Inspector Alan Grant is laid up in hospital with a spinal injury and he's bored. Renowned for his ability to read a face, he passes the time looking at old portraits and one which particularly grabs his attention is of Richard III, the supposed arch villain who killed his own nephews, 'the princes in the tower' But Grant doesn't accept the face in the portrait is the face of a villain so he sets out to investigate what really happened. An unusual premise for a crime novel perhaps, but nevertheless an extremely clever and engrossing one, brilliantly plotted and written with enormous charm and erudition.

Good delivery time and nice copy except for a diagonal crease of the back cover - not sufficient to return the book but slightly annoying.

  • Modern Investigation of a Medieval Mystery

    First, I should warn a prospective buyer that this book features an extremely small format -- which as far as I'm concerned, enhances its charm. The pages are gilded, and there's an attached ribbon for a bookmark. Overall, I found this edition delightful. Now, as to the content, I highly recommend this historical whodunit for fans of both detective fiction and history: written in the form of a modern crime investigation, the novel debunks Shakespeare's grotesque, Tudor-loving portrayal of Richard III, as well as those of other sycophantic pseudo historians such as Thomas More. Josephine Tey tells the story with humor and authenticity, all of which will come as a delightful surprise to readers who value truth over propaganda.
