Elizabeth George: Missing Joseph, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Kurzbeschreibung

The sixth novel in the best-selling Inspector Lynley mystery series

Beschreibung

Eigentlich wollte Simon St. James und seine Frau Deborah im winterlichen Lancashire nur ausspannen. Doch statt dessen erwartet sie in dem kleinen Nest Winslough Erschütterndes: Der Pfarrer des Ortes wurde vergiftet. Nur ein tragischer Unglücksfall? Lynleys Ermittlungen bringen Licht in die Vergangenheit der Dorfbewohner. Und was dabei schließlich zu Tage kommt, läßt alle verstummen. When Deborah St James hears of the unexpected death of Reverend Sage, her sadness has a very personal tinge. For their paths had crossed some months earlier at a particularly vulnerable time for Deborah, and she had found herself confessing her intimate anguish to this sympathetic stranger.
When she realizes that his death is far from accidental, Deborah, with her husband, Simon, enlists the help of Inspector Lynley, and the trio embark upon an investigation that hinges upon the overriding - and ultimately destructive - power of parental love.
