Named One of the Best Mysteries of All Time by The New York Times and Time

Acclaimed author Josephine Tey recreates one of history’s most famous—and vicious—crimes in her classic bestselling novel, a must-read for connoisseurs of fiction, now with a new introduction by Robert Barnard.

Inspector Alan Grant of Scotland Yard, recuperating from a broken leg, becomes fascinated with a contemporary portrait of Richard III that bears no resemblance to the Wicked Uncle of history. Could such a sensitive, noble face actually belong to one of the world’s most heinous villains—a venomous hunchback who may have killed his brother’s children to make his crown secure? Or could Richard have been the victim, turned into a monster by the usurpers of England’s throne? Grant determines to find out once and for all, with the help of the British Museum and an American scholar, what kind of man Richard Plantagenet really was and who killed the Little Princes in the Tower.

Suspenseful, beautifully written, and thought-provoking, The Daughter of Time is a masterpiece of historical mystery fiction—a must-read for fans of Agatha Christie, Sherlock Holmes, and classic detective novels.
