Story
Diagnosed with ‘overwork’ and in the grip of debilitating claustrophobia, Inspector Alan Grant takes leave from Scotland Yard and heads for the peaceful home of his cousin Laura, who lives with her family in the Scottish Highlands. As the London mail draws into Inverness, he sees the surly sleeping-car attendant trying to rouse an unresponsive young man. He is compelled, firstly, to point out that the passenger is dead, and secondly to pick up the newspaper that has slipped onto the compartment floor.

Beneath the sea cliffs of the south coast, suicides are a sad but common fact. Yet even the hardened coastguard knows something is wrong when a beautiful young film actress is found lying dead on the beach one morning. However, it soon becomes clear that darker motives were afoot, and potential suspects in the death of Christine Clay stack up at a rapid pace. As the case grows murkier, the man who spent the last week of Clay’s life living with her in a remote cottage goes on the run, and Inspector Alan Grant must race to uncover the truth.

Marion Sharpe and her mother seem an unlikely duo to be found on the wrong side of the law. Quiet and ordinary, they have led a peaceful and unremarkable life at their country home, The Franchise. Unremarkable that is, until the police turn up with a demure young woman on their doorstep.Not only does Betty Kane accuse them of kidnap and abuse, she can back up her claim with a detailed description of the attic room in which she was kept, right down to the crack in its round window.

Story
A long line had formed for the standing-room-only section of the Woffington Theatre. London’s favorite musical comedy of the past two years was finishing its run at the end of the week. Suddenly, the line began to move, forming a wedge before the open doors as hopeful theatergoers nudged their way forward. But one man, his head sunk down upon his chest, slowly sank to his knees and then, still more slowly, keeled over on his face. Thinking he had fainted, a spectator moved to help, but recoiled in horror from what lay before him.

Story
The Daughter of Time is a 1951 detective novel by Josephine Tey, concerning a modern police officer's investigation into the alleged crimes of King Richard III of England. It was the last book Tey published in her lifetime, shortly before her death. In 1990 it was voted number one in The Top 100 Crime Novels of All Time list compiled by the British Crime Writers' Association. Scotland Yard Inspector Alan Grant (a character who also appears in five other novels by the same author) is feeling bored while confined to bed in hospital with a broken leg.

Ob Inspektor Grant von Scotland Yard diesen Fall lösen wird? Als Schauspielstar Christine Clay tot an den Klippen des Städtchens Westover gefunden wird, glaubt man zunächst an Selbstmord oder Badeunfall. Doch der Mantelknopf, der sich in ihrem Haar verfangen hat, weist auf etwas ganz anderes hin. Mordverdächtige gibt es plötzlich wie Sand am Meer, allen voran der mittellose Tisdall, dem sie kurz vorher noch ein stattliches Erbe zugedacht hatte.

Ein Ermittlungserfolg mit 400 Jahren Verspätung Inspector Alan Grant von Scotland Yard muss mit einem gebrochenen Bein das Bett hüten – und fühlt sich wie im Gefängnis. Erbärmlicher noch, denn im Krankenhaus ist Haftverkürzung selbst bei guter Führung ausgeschlossen. Beinahe so demütigend wie die Erinnerung an seinen lächerlichen Sturz ist der schroffe Ton der Krankenschwestern. Am schlechtesten aber erträgt Grant die Langeweile. Eine Freundin rät ihm, sich an einem der vielen ungelösten Rätsel der Kriminalgeschichte zu versuchen, und versorgt ihn mit Porträts berühmter Verbrecher.
