THE COMPLAINT OF THE DOVE has more than a charismatic protagonist. March has created a felicitously realised Georgian mystery, and setting a detective novel in the age of Moll Flanders is a masterstroke... THE DEVIL'S HIGHWAY is equally as exuberant (THE TIMES)

Reseña del editor
It's 1761. Robert Fairfax, chancing upon a stagecoach tipped into a ditch, two of its passengers lying dead, is propelled into a baffling and complex investigation. He soon suspects that this is more than a simple highway robbery. One of the two corpses is apparently a wealthy banker, Nicholas Twelvetree, but Nicholas Twelvetree is alive in the neighbouring town - paralysed with fear. The other corpse appears to be that of an escaped lunatic - a revelation made by a Methodist preacher who is universally despised. But the coach record states that there were three passengers on board that day. So where is the third? Fairfax traces murderous designs behind an intricate pattern of deception and must piece together this deadly puzzle - knowing that a ruthless killer will stop at nothing to prevent him ...

Paper. Zustand: VG. First Thus. When the manager of the coaching house on the Great North Road expresses concern about the overdue stage called the Stamfiord Flyer; little does Robert Fairfax image what he will find down the road at Stangate Hole. 312 pages of mystery and murder set in England in 1761. Cond : Red paper wrapper w/ a foggy image of a white mask as cover graphic. Chipping at all edges and corners. Sm. fray at spine tail. Bright, clean and tight. Binding good w/ sli. twist. No names nor creases nor marks nor tears. Quote (p. 161) : " .gentility of the squares. The Honeyman house was very old, perhaps even thirteenth century, Fairfax thought : mellow stone that seemed to bulge out over the pavement, lancet windows that to his secular mind were inescapably . .".
