Delphi Complete Works of Josephine Tey

The Scottish novelist and playwright Josephine Tey, pseudonym of Elizabeth Mackintosh, wrote popular detective novels praised for their warm and engaging style. They feature the indefatigable Inspector Grant, whose cases often involve the darker side of humanity, as Tey's works fashioned a bridge between the Golden Age of Detective Fiction and contemporary crime novels.

Her masterpiece 'The Daughter of Time' sees Grant investigating the role of Richard III of England in the death of the Princes in the Tower. It went on to win the prestigious distinction of being the greatest crime novel of all time, as judged by the Crime Writers' Association, even eclipsing the works of Doyle, Sayers, Chandler and Christie. For the first time in publishing history, this eBook presents Tey's complete fictional works, with numerous illustrations, rare texts, informative introductions and the usual Delphi bonus material.
