Patricia Wentworth – US version

Original price was: $ 2.99.Current price is: $ 1.99.

Patricia Wentworth was a leading figure of the Golden Age of Detective Fiction, penning dozens of bestselling mysteries, as well as noted historical fiction. Her most enduring creation is Miss Maud Silver, a retired governess, who becomes a professional private detective in London. Like Agatha Christie’s Jane Marple, Miss Silver comes across as invisible due to her age and cozy sleuthing approach. This eBook presents Wentworth’s collected works, with numerous illustrations, rare texts, concise introductions and the usual Delphi bonus material. (Version 1)
