Inhaltsangabe
This is a detective and trial story with a complicated plot that will grip the reader. Victoria Lamartine is on trial for the murder of her supposed lover, whom she is accused of having stabbed. There are only five suspects including Lamartine. But evidence that doesn’t fit the police theory of the crime has been ignored, whilst all of the damming evidence is presented in isolation. Intriguingly, whilst the murder was committed in England, all of the suspects somehow have a past connection with France and its wartime underground. However, there now appears to be links to gold smuggling and it is not immediately clear how all of the different pieces of evidence fit together. As always, Gilbert neatly takes the reader to a satisfying final twist and conclusion.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor
Born in Lincolnshire, England, Michael Francis Gilbert graduated in law from the University of London in 1937. He first spent some time teaching at a prep school, which was followed by six years serving with the Royal Horse Artillery. During World War II he was captured following service in North Africa and Italy, and his prisoner-of-war experiences later led to the writing of the acclaimed novel Death in Captivity in 1952. After the war, Gilbert worked as a solicitor in London, but his writing continued throughout his legal career. In addition to novels, he wrote stage plays and scripts for radio and television. He is, however, best remembered for his novels, which have been described as witty and meticulously plotted espionage and police procedural thrillers, but which exemplify realism. Much of Michael Gilbert’s writing was done on the train as he traveled from home to his office in London.
