The Blue Nile

Más información sobre el libro

Shades of Agatha Christie! If you like an old-fashioned English murder mystery, a great read in front of a blazing fireplace, with a cup of Earl Gray tea, while a storm rages outside, then the Blue Nile Mystery is for you. It has everything. An Inspector who may be a mystery himself, a fifty carat sapphire that is a cursed, demonic stone from Egypt, a snooping mystery writer as one of the suspects, a handsome Lord accused of the double murder of his wife and gardener, a woman psychiatrist who has secrets, and a greedy aristocrat who must have the Blue Nile at all costs.¿They all live in the sleepy village of Essex in 1911, not too far from Southampton where the great ship, Titanic, is being readied for her maiden voyage into death and destruction and part of the plot. The Blue Nile is one of those wonderful mysteries in the style of Agatha Christie that will have you guessing to the end especially when you find out all the suspects have iron clad alibis. If you love crossword puzzles, cunning challenges, reading about other times and other places, pitting your little gray cells against those of a murderer and thief, then you have come to the right place. We dare you to figure it out before the Inspector confronts the culprit or before the Titanic sails.
