The Death of a Colonial Book

Eighteenth-century London judge Sir John Fielding returns in the sixth of Alexander's highly praised mysteries.Consistently hailed as "wonderful" (The New York Times Book Review), "first-rate" (The Boston Globe), and "altogether much fun" (The Washington Post), the Fielding mysteries are a magical combination of period ambiance, vivid characterization, and intriguing plotlines. Now the blind magistrate embarks upon the most puzzling of all his cases.A nobleman, the last of his line, is executed, and his possessions set to go to the Crown, when his younger brother, missing for seven years, suddenly reappears to stake his claim. But where has he been? Why does his mother react to him so oddly? And what connection does this case have to the suicide by hanging of an American in London? To find the answers, Sir John and his ward, Jeremy, must travel from London to Bath to Oxford--and finally to a much darker place.Read More
