Over dit e-boek
The ninth Inspector Castang murder mystery is "a heady pleasure" in which "learning the identity of the miscreant is only one of the delights" ( Publishers Weekly).
Recently promoted to Commissaire of a small province in northeastern France, Inspector Castang must tread lightly when the wife of a prominent wine merchant is murdered. Especially since the victim's sister is very well-connected in political circles. Castang has his work cut out for him, especially when his lead suspect turns up dead. . . .
Praise for Nicolas Freeling:
"In depth of characterization, command of language and breadth of thought, Mr. Freeling has few peers when it comes to the international policier." — The New York Times
"Nicolas Freeling . . . liberated the detective story from page-turning puzzler into a critique of society and an investigation of character." — The Daily Telegraph
"Freeling rewards with his oblique, subtly comic style." — Publishers Weekly
"Freeling writes like no one. . . . He is one of the most literate and idiosyncratic of crime writers." — Los Angeles Times
