Peter Green

    22 de diciembre de 1924

    Este autor, que pasó de una carrera en arquitectura a ser escritor, aporta una perspectiva única a la escritura de misterio, basándose en experiencias con intrigas y posibles engaños encontrados en su vida profesional. Su novela debut presenta a un arquitecto que se topa con un asesinato durante una gran inundación, lo que lo obliga a asumir un papel de detective aficionado para proteger su carrera y su vida. El estilo narrativo del autor está moldeado por su pasado en la redacción de propuestas y una profunda apreciación por las historias familiares, incluyendo relatos de guerra humorísticos y esfuerzos periodísticos, infundiendo a su ficción tanto suspense como detalle auténtico.
