ReviewsPraise for the Josephine Tey Mysteries: "Outstanding . . . Upson makes all of her complex characters' motivations, guilt, and lies understandable while subtly inserting clues into the ingeniously twisty plot. She has few peers, in any era, in imbuing fair-play whodunits with psychological depth." -- Publishers Weekly, starred review "Upson is a magical storyteller . . . Charming and intriguing." -- Booklist, starred review "A truly brilliant twist . . . yet, it is the quality of writing that makes this puppy novel not just for Christmas but for life." -- The UK Times "A challenging murder mystery...and a strong sense of place combine to make this a fascinating read." -- Library Journal "The writing is crisp and sharp, with the authentic feel of England lending credence to the tale. The plot twists and turns like a whirligig, taking the reader for an enjoyable ride. Heartily recommended." Historical Novels Review "Historical crime fiction at its very best." -- Sunday Times "A compelling mystery . . . Heartrending." -- San Francisco Book Review

SynopsisViolence finds its way to old Hollywood in the eleventh Josephine Tey mystery, perfect for fans of Rhys Bowen and Jacqueline Winspear. September 1939, and the worries of war follow Josephine Tey to Hollywood, where a different sort of battle is raging on the set of Hitchcock's Rebecca . Then a shocking act of violence reawakens the shadows of the past, with consequences on both sides of the Atlantic, and Josephine and DCI Archie Penrose find themselves on a trail leading back to the house that inspired a young Daphne du Maurier - a trail that echoes Rebecca 's timeless themes of obsession, jealousy, and murder.
