Master of Historical Detective Novels: Andrew Taylor (all 5 Volumes)
About This Novel
Winner of the British Crime Writers Association Lifetime Achievement Award, he is one of the most outstanding contemporary historical novelists. Historical reasoning, crime mystery, take you into British adventure! Edgar Allan Poe, known as the originator of detective fiction, lived in England from 1815 to 1820, when he was still a child in boarding school. Later generations believe that his masterpiece "William Wilson" has an autobiographical element, because this short story is set in a British boarding school. Today, Thomas Hilde is on his way to a country boarding school. Almost penniless, he is about to become a teacher for a group of wealthy children in London. Among his students is an American boy named Edgar Allen. Edgar and his good friend Charles are inseparable every day. As their teacher, Hilde has the opportunity to glimpse a corner of the life of the rich. Just when he secretly lamented the different fates, a horrific corpse turned everything upside down, and bystanders were not spared either. The complete collection consists of five volumes, including: The Last Four Things, The Trial of Strangers, Death Studio, Caroline Fonts, and American Boys.
