Title : Isle of the Dead - Phyllis Dorothy James - Book
Summary :
A Victorian castle built on an island: this is where a wealthy eccentric has invited some friends for the weekend. The program of festivities includes a play put on by a troupe of amateurs.
But someone is disrupting the party, playing gruesome jokes at the guests' expense. Death is lurking around the island. Terror is setting in. Cordelia Gray, the young detective from The Prey for the Shadow plays the bodyguard and observes with a careful eye these guests whose good manners hide unspeakable vices. Energetic, intuitive, she unravels one by one the threads of this criminal spider's web. With In Isle of the Dead, PD James more than ever deserves her title of "queen of crime." In this subtle novel, ferocity, humor, and Elizabethan drama blend in an inimitable way.
