A Christmas visitor

The Dreghorn family is gathering for an anticipated reunion in the Lake District of England. The blissful tranquility of the snowbound estate, however, is soon shattered by what appears to be an accidental death. The victim's distraught wife, Antonia, summons her godfather, distinguished mathematician and inventor Henry Rathbone--one of the most beloved characters from Perry's bestselling William Monk series. But questions about the tragic event turn into whispers of murder, sending shock waves among members of the Dreghorn clan, who haven't seen each other in ten years. Now Rathbone must put his analytical and creative capacities to the test as he assumes the role of an amateur investigator. But while searching for clues and mulling over potential motives, he cannot help but wonder: Will another poor soul meet the same untimely end--and be silenced like the night?

  • "England, Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts: Anfang Dezember wird Judah Dreghorn, Richter in Penrith im Lake District, ermordet. Nach und nach treffen die ahnungslosen Brüder des Richters zum vermeintlich beschaulichen Weihnachtsfest auf dem idyllischen, familieneigenen Landsitz ein. Mit Hilfe von Henry Rathbone, dem väterlichen Freund der Witwe, begeben Sie sich auf die Suche nach dem Mörder und stossen dabei auf ein lange gehütetes Geheimnis um den Familienbesitz. Die Engländerin Anne Perry, 1938 in London geboren, verbrachte einen Teil ihrer Jugend in Neuseeland und auf den Bahamas. Schon früh begann sie zu schreiben. Ihre historischen Kriminalromane zeichnen ein lebendiges Bild des spätviktorianischen England und begeistern mittlerweile ein Millionenpublikum. Anne Perry lebt und schreibt in Schottland. Mehr Informationen zur Autorin und ihren Büchern unter: www.anneperry.co.uk."
