An Atlantic voyage carries a notorious murder suspect
Good Condition - minor wear to cover. Yellow-brown foxing is visible on the preliminary leaves.
In 1910, the disappearance of Cora Crippen leads police towards a shocking discovery and a pursuit that captures public attention. Her husband, Dr Hawley Crippen, has left England with his lover Ethel Le Neve, apparently hoping that a new identity and an ocean crossing will put them beyond reach. Aboard the SS Montrose, their journey intersects with the lives and suspicions of other passengers, while Inspector Dew follows the trail. John Boyne reimagines the famous case through historical fiction, moving between the voyage and the events that preceded it. The novel blends suspense with questions about character, motive and the uncertain stories behind a crime that became part of popular history.
