Best yet by Perry Detective William Monk, Hester Latterly, Oliver Rathbone work together to solve a very difficult case of a woman (Alexandra Carlton) who confesses to killing her husband. But why? Who is she protecting? And from what horror that is worse than her dying? That’s what they must discover before it is too late. Very complex story with sadness too. Monk also has insights into his past that help to further explain who he was. Third of the Monk series, and this author is growing on me more and more. She creates her Victorian crime story with care and much attention to detail, possibly overmuch for some readers. The characters are finely drawn and poor Monk, the amnesiac, is still trying to recover his identity and history. Good detective work ends in a fine courtroom drama that I enjoyed very much. Cuando el general Thaddeus Carlyon, insigne veterano del Imperio de Su Majestad, muere en una elegante fiesta londinense, nadie sospecha que se trate de un asesinato. Sin embargo, la bella esposa del general, Alexandra, se confiesa autora del crimen, lo que causará una profunda conmoción en la aristocracia victoriana. El detective William Monk trabajará incansablemente junto a Oliver Rathbone, su colaborador habitual y abogado defensor de Alexandra Carlyon, para conseguir salvar la vida de la acusada. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
