The Late Scholar: A Gripping Oxford College Murder Mystery

Autor Jill Paton Walsh
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 5 iun 2014
'Cleverly plotted . . . Walsh's pitch-perfect re-creation of the charismatic leads is a delight' - Publishers Weekly
'Delicious' - Booklist

Lord Peter Wimsey is delighted to discover that along with a dukedom he has inherited the duties of 'visitor' at an Oxford college. When the fellows ask him to resolve a college dispute, he and Harriet are all too keen to spend some time in Oxford.

But the dispute quickly turns sour. The voting is evenly balanced between two passionate parties, and the Warden - who has the casting vote - has mysteriously disappeared. Even worse, several of the fellows begin dying unexpectedly.

And the deaths of the deceased fellows bear an uncanny resemblance to the murders in Peter's past cases - murders that Harriet has used in her published novels . . .

Recenzii

Ms. Walsh once more succeeds in emulating and extending her late inspiration's unusual mixture of drama and foolishness, poetry and prattle, local colour and grim undercurrents
Cleverly plotted . . . Walsh's pitch-perfect re-creation of the charismatic leads is a delight. Sayers fans can only hope for more.
An entertaining and convoluted puzzle for readers who enjoy Golden Age mysteries
Delicious
Fans will eagerly welcome back their beloved sleuth and enjoy seeing Harriet hold her own in a thoughtfully constructed mystery
Faithful to Sayers' legacy and amplified by Walsh's own considerable talents, The Late Scholar offers a smart plot, a look at beloved characters' later lives and an evocative examination of academia. Readers will hope that it's not the last instalment in a rewarding and authentic continuation of a cherished series.
Peter Wimsey and Harriet Vane are at their scholarly and detective best in The Late Scholar . . . Somewhere Sayers is applauding.
