Fine unread condition maroon boards, black spine and gold spine lettering contained in a fine condition non price-clipped color photographic dust jacket. Includes List of Other Books by P.D. James; Author Dedication; Author's Note and A Note About the Author. An Adam Dalgliesh Mystery. "The setting itself is elemental P.D. James: the bleak coast of East Anglia, where atop a sweep of low cliffs stands the small theological college of St. Anselm's. On the shore not far away, smothered beneath a fall of sand, lies the body of one of the school's young ordinands. He is the son of Sir Alred Treves, a hugely successful and flamboyant businessman who is accustomed to getting what he wants - and in this case what he wants is Commander Adam Dalgliesh to investigate his son's death. Although there seems to be little to investigate, Dalgliesh agrees, largely out of nostalgia for several happy summers he spent at S. Anselm's as a boy. No sooner does he arrive, however, than the college is torn apart by a sacrilegious and horrifying murder, and Dalgliesh finds himself ineluctably drawn into the labyrinth of an intricate and violent mystery. Here P.D. James once more demonstrates her unrivalled skill in building a classic detective story into a fully realized novel, gripping as much for its psychologiical and emotional richness as for the orignality and complexity of its plotting - and, of course, for the horror and suspense at its heart. Filled with unforgettable characters, brilliant in its evocation of the East Anglian scene and the religious background against which the action takes place, Death in Holy Orders again offers proof, if proof were needed, that P.D. James is not only the reigning master of the crime novel but also, simply, one of the finest novelists writing today." - from the inner front jacket flap.

James; Author Dedication; Prologue; Appendix; Index; and A Note About the Author. Illustrated with a section of black-and-white photographic plates. "In 1997, P.D. James, the much loved and internationally acclaimed author of mysteries, turned seventy-seven. Taking to heart Dr. Johnson's advice that at seventy-seven it is "time to be in earnest," she decided to undertake a book unlike any she had written before: a personal memoir in the form of a diary. This enchanting and highly original volume is the result. Structured as the diary of a single year, it roams back and forth through time, illuminating James's extraordinary, sometimes painful and sometimes joyful life. Here, interwoven with reflections on her writing career and the craft of crime novels, are vivid accounts of episodes in her own past - of school days in the 1920s and 1930s Cambridge .of the war and the tragedy of her husband's madness. of her determined struggle to support a family alone. She tells about the birth of her second daughter in the midst of a German buzz-bomb attack; about becoming a civil servant (and laying the groundwork for her writing career by working in the criminal justice system); about her years of public service on such bodies as the Arts Council and the BBC's Board of Governors, culminating in entry to the House of Lords. Along the way, with warmth and authority, she offers views on everything from author tours to the problems of television adaptations, from book reviewing to her obsession with Jane Austen. Written with exeptional grace, this "fragment of autobiography" has already been received with enthusiasm by British reviewers and readers. The thousands of Americans who hav enjoyed P.D. James's novels will be equally charmed. Diary or memoir or both, Time to Be in Earnest is a delight." - from the inner front jacket flap.

Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Fine. 1st Edition. Fine unread condition black boards, black spine, gold front cover lettering and gold spine lettering contained in a fine condition color illustrated dust jacket. Includes List of Other Books by P.D. James; Author's Note and A Note About the Author. A former owner embossed 1 1/2 inch round blindstamp at lower left corner of half title page. "With Original Sin, P.D. James returns to the genre she has made so distinctively her own, the classic detective story that is at the same time a fully fledged novel marked by imagination and emotional subtlety. Commander Adam Dalgliesh and his team are confronted with a puzzle of baffling complexity. A murder has taken place in the offices of the Peverell Press, a venerable London publishing house located in a dramatic mock-Venetian palace on the Thames. The victim is Gerard Etienne, the brilliant but ruthless new managing director, who had vowed to restore the firm's fortunes. Etienne was clearly a man with enemies - a discarded mistress, a rejected and humiliated author, and rebellious colleagues, one of whom apparently killed herself a short time before. Yet Etienne's death, which occurred under bizarre circumstances, is for Dalgliesh only the beginning of the mystery, as he desperately pursues the search for a killer prepared to strike and strike again. Original Sin is a detective thriller in the grand manner, profoundly enriched by P.D. James's ability to evoke an atmosphere of suspense and to create characters whose psychology is plausible and gripping. Nothing is simple about it - the mystery, the haunting symbolism of death and the river, even the interaction between Dalgliesh and his subordinates, Kat Miskin and Daniel Aaron. P.D. James has written her most accomplished novel yet." - from the inner front jacket flap. Carson, Carol Devine (jacket design) (illustrator).…
