Past Caring

Broché - 17/07/1987 - Corgi Books

Le Pitch

Présentation de l'éditeur Why should distinguished Edwardian Cabinet minister Edwin Strafford resign at the height of his parliamentary career? Why does the woman he loves so suddenly and coldly reject him? Why, seventy years later, should people go to such lengths - even as far as murder - to prevent the truth from being revealed? Martin Radford, history graduate, disaffected and unemployed, leaps at the chance to get to the island of Madeira and begin the hunt for a solution to the intriguing secret of Edwin Strafford's fall from grace. However, his seeming good fortune turns to nightmare as his investigation triggers a bizarre and violent train of events which remorselessly entangles him and those who believed they had escaped the spectre of crimes long past but never paid for... Revue de presse "Combines the expert suspense manipulation skills of a Daphne DuMaurier romance with those of a John Le Carre thriller." — New York Times "One of the best novel I've read in a long time...I loved every one of its 500 pages" — Washington Post "A hornet's nest of jealousy, blackmail and violence. Engrossing" — Daily Mail "A complex trail of blackmail and murder. Recommended" — Daily Express Biographie de l'auteur Robert Goddard was born in Hampshire and read History at Cambridge. His first novel, Past Caring, was an instant bestseller. Since then his books have captivated readers worldwide with their edge-of-the-seat pace and their labyrinthine plotting. His first Harry Barnett novel, Into the Blue, was winner of the first WHSmith Thumping Good Read Award and was dramatized for TV, starring John Thaw. Afficher moins Afficher plus
