- Book Synopsis
- 'Brilliant.' The Times 'One of Upson's most evocative novels.' Guardian September 1939: The worries of war follow Josephine Tey to Hollywood, where a different sort of battle is raging on the set of Hitchcock's Rebecca. Little does Josephine realise that the man she has befriended in Hollywood is the perpetrator of a shocking act of violence and is being sought back in Britain by DCI Archie Penrose. Together, they find themselves on a trail that echoes Rebecca's timeless themes of obsession, resentment and murder. WHAT READERS THINK: 'Brilliant as ever . . . Thrilling.' 5* review 'Fascinating and compelling . . . Loved it.' 5* review 'What a story!' 5* review 'Wonderful.' 5* review 'I absolutely loved this . . . a thrilling and glamorous read.' 5* review
