Book Description Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. 1st Edition. AN EXPERT IN MURDER is the first in a new series which features Golden Age crime writer Josephine Tey as its lead character, placing her in the richly peopled world of 1930s theatre which formed the other half of her writing life. It's March 1934, and Tey is travelling from Scotland to London to celebrate what should be the triumphant final week of her celebrated play, Richard of Bordeaux. However, a seemingly senseless murder puts her reputation, and even her life, under threat. Cleverly blending fact and fiction, AN EXPERT IN MURDER, is both a tribute to one of the most enduringly popular writers of crime and an atmospheric detective novel in its own right. New, unread, pristine, first edition, first printing, in new, flawless, mylar-protected dust jacket. {Not remainder-marked or price-clipped} M115. Seller Inventory # 024727
