Beschreibung:
John Dickson Carr (1906-1977) wurde als Sohn schottischer Eltern in Uniontown, Pennsylvania, geboren. In seinen über 90 Romanen nimmt Carr die Tradition seiner Vorbilder Arthur Conan Doyle und G. K. Chesterton anspielungsreich auf. Der beleibte und Bier trinkende Privatgelehrte Dr. Gideon Fell muss einen Vergleich mit den großen Detektiven dieser Autoren nicht scheuen.
Jim Blake, journalist and successful spy novelist, is sent to New Orleans to do a story on James Claiborne Blake, a congressional hopeful in the 1912 election. But even from New York he senses following eyes. James Blake, it seems, is threatened by sexual indiscretions. And as the plot thickens, both Blakes become involved in politics and intrigue - and then impossible murder - among the atmospheric byways of New Orleans. 'A wonderful period piece that includes some fascinating real-life characters' Saturday Review
