About This Item
"No superlatives are adequate,"' wrote Anthony Boucher ,reviewing The Daughter of Time for the New York Times in 1952, "simply mark this down as one of the best ,not of the year, but of all time." Considered to this time to be one of the true classics of the mystery genre, Josephine Tey's compelling novel continues to captivate readers with its thought-provoking and historical plot. And the murder happened only 500 years ago.
