Samenvatting:

The latest in Nicola Upson's wildly successful historical cosy crime series starring the novelist Josephine Tey. A murderer stalks the set of Hitchcock's film of Rebecca, bent on revenge.

'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.
