Kerry Greenwood: Dead Man's Chest, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Travelling at high speed in her beloved Hispano-Suiza accompanied by her trusted companion Dot, her two adoptive daughters and their dog, Phryne Fisher is off to Queenscliff. She'd promised everyone a nice holiday by the sea with absolutely no murders, but when they arrive at their rented accommodation that starts to seem less and less likely. An empty house, a gang of teenage louts, and the mystery of a missing butler and his wife seem to lead inexorably towards a hunt for buried treasure by the sea.

But what information might the curious Surrealists be able to contribute? Phryne knows what depths people will sink to for greed, but with a glass of champagne in one hand and a pearl-handled Beretta in the other, no-one is getting past her.

'With Phryne Fisher, the indefatigable Greenwood has invented the character-you-fall-in-love-with genre' The Australian 'The tricky plot, lively writing, likable flapper sleuth, and superb sense of period will delight readers' Publisher's Weekly
