Ruth Galloway-serie 14. Harry Nelson ontdekt dat de buurvrouw van Ruth ooit berecht werd voor moord op haar werkgever. Iets wat persoonlijker voor Ruth blijkt te zijn dan vermoed. Uitgegeven door Uitgeverij De Fontein Spreker: Miryanna van Reeden

Elly Griffiths has always written short stories to experiment with different voices and genres as well as to explore what some of her fictional creations such as Ruth Galloway, Harbinder Kaur, and Max Mephisto might have done outside of the novels. The Man in Black gathers these bite-sized tales all together in one splendid volume. There are ghost stories, cozy mysteries, tales of psychological suspense, and poignant vignettes of love and loss. In the title story, Ruth Galloway crosses paths with a mysterious man in a bookstore, setting in motion a rescue mission that hinges on the legends and lore of Norfolk. Looking into the past, a young magician in 1920s Leeds wonders just what happened to his missing landlady in “Max Mephisto and the Disappearing Act.” In “Justice Jones and the Etherphone,” a witty girl detective investigates the dire prediction of a fortune teller in dreary postwar London. A flashback in time reveals Harbinder Kaur as a Detective Sergeant surviving her first day on the job at Shoreham DCI. To celebrate the holidays, Ruth gets her very first Christmas tree, and her beloved cat narrates his own seasonal story in “Flint's Fireside Tale.” And readers can armchair travel with stories set on the Amalfi Coast, in Capri, and in Egypt as Ruth and DCI Nelson experience their very own version of Death on the Nile. The Man in Black illustrates the breadth and variety of Elly Griffiths's talent for blood-chilling, page-turning stories all with her trademark humor and heart.    Elly Griffiths is the USA Today bestselling author of the Ruth Galloway and Brighton mystery series, as well as the standalone novels The Stranger Diaries, winner of the Edgar Award for Best Novel; The Postscript Murders; and Bleeding Heart Yard. She is the recipient of the CWA Dagger in the Library Award and the Mary Higgins Clark Award. She lives in Brighton, England.

The Postscript Murders by Elly Griffiths "This droll romp is a latter-day Miss Marple.” —Washington Post Murder leaps off the page when crime novelists begin to turn up dead in this intricate new novel by internationally best-selling author Elly Griffiths, a literary mystery perfect for fans of Anthony Horowitz and Agatha Christie. The death of a ninety-year-old woman with a heart condition should not be suspicious. Detective Sergeant Harbinder Kaur certainly sees nothing out of the ordinary when Peggy’s caretaker, Natalka, begins to recount Peggy Smith’s passing. But Natalka had a reason to be at the police station: while clearing out Peggy’s flat, she noticed an unusual number of crime novels, all dedicated to Peggy. And each psychological thriller included a mysterious postscript: PS: for PS. When a gunman breaks into the flat to steal a book and its author is found dead shortly thereafter—Detective Kaur begins to think that perhaps there is no such thing as an unsuspicious death after all. And then things escalate: from an Aberdeen literary festival to the streets of Edinburgh, writers are being targeted. DS Kaur embarks on a road trip across Europe and reckons with how exactly authors can think up such realistic crimes . . . About Elly Griffiths Thank you for visiting my Amazon author page! I'm the author of two crime series, the Dr Ruth Galloway books and the Brighton Mysteries. Last year I also published a stand-alone, The Stranger Diaries, and a children's book, A Girl Called Justice. I have previously written books under my real name, Domenica de Rosa (I know it sounds made up). The Ruth books are set in Norfolk, a place I know well from childhood. It was a chance remark of my husband's that gave me the idea for the first in the series, The Crossing Places. We were crossing Titchwell Marsh in North Norfolk when Andy (an archaeologist) mentioned that prehistoric people thought that marshland was sacred ground. Because it's neither land nor sea, but something in-between, they saw it as a bridge to the afterlife; neither land nor sea, neither life nor death. In that moment, I saw Dr Ruth Galloway walking towards me out of the mist... I live near Brighton with Andy. We have two grown-up children. I write in a garden shed accompanied by my cat, Gus.

Two of the regular voices, Chris McDonald and Rob Parker, talk to Elly Griffiths, author of the Ruth Galloway series and the Detective Inspector Edgar Stephens and Max Mephisto Series, about her work and experiences.

A roundup of books we are currently in love with.A BAD DAY FOR SUNSHINE (Sunshine Vicram #1)by Darynda JonesSheriff Sunshine Vicram finds her cup o' joe more than half full when the small village of Del Sol, New Mexico, becomes the center of national attention for a kidnapper on the loose.Del Sol, New Mexico is known for three things: its fry-an-egg-on-the-cement summers, strong cups of coffee - and, now, a nationwide manhunt?

Excerpt from The Penitent Priest “I can’t believe this,” Nate said as he looked through the emails. “This is great! You see this, Father?” When I called Nate and told him I’d do an interview, he was happy. When I told him about what I had found and Helen’s response, he was practically speechless. Meeting him at The Perfect Cup the next day and showing him copies of the emails, he was jumping up and down in his chair like a little boy on Christmas morning. “Don’t you see, now this has everything. It’s not just a cold case of a senseless murder,” Nate went on, holding up the emails. “This is a cold case of a planned murder. She was stalked, and whoever was stalking her killed her--”  “Now really we don’t know that,” I interrupted. “--and we have the police doing nothing when new evidence is shown to them.” He inhaled and exhaled. “Now we have a story.” “I thought you had a story before?” “We did,” he answered. “It’s a better story now. And you’ll do an interview on camera?” “Yes,” I said, “but who’s we?” “We,” Rodriguez repeated. “My partner and I.” “What partner?” “My partner in the film,” he replied. “Oh, did I forget to mention her? She’s meeting us--oh, here she is now.” Nate stood and waved at someone. I turned around to see who. She was young, blond, and pretty. And earnest. Very earnest. I recognized her from one of the local stations in Baltimore. She did those human-interest stories that really interested nobody. She leaned into Nate and gave him a quick peck on the cheek. “Father Tom Greer,” Nate said, “Meet Katherine Shepp.” She smiled and extended her thin, well-manicured hand. “So nice to meet you, Father,” she said, her voice as silky as her hair. I took her hand, she covered mine with her other hand. She looked into my eyes. “I’m really looking forward to working with you,” she purred. I settled down to my usual coffee with cream and sugars as she sipped on her decaf soy latte. Nate was there until his uncle came over to remind him that his break was over. After he excused himself, Shepp said, “I’m glad you’ve agreed to help me with the story.” Me? “Yes, I decided that Joan’s story needed to be told.”  She smiled, showing perfectly white teeth behind her expertly colored lips. There was no lipstick on her cup. It was either very good lipstick, or she had had her lips tattooed. “When Nate told me about the story of your wife’s murder, I was just so, so...moved, I guess is the word I’m looking for. And then when he told me you came back, and you were now a priest, well, that’s just wonderful.” “I guess an unsolved murder is a bit of a change from doggy beauty pagents.” She guffawed. “Yeah, that.
