The Maul and the Pear Tree

The Maul and the Pear Tree

T.A. Critchley
0/5 ( ratings)
During a dark night in December 1811, in London's East End, a tradesman, his young wife, sleeping baby, and a shop boy were battered to death in their home. Days later, a pub owner, his wife, and a servant were similarly killed. No motive was found.
P.D. James, collaborating with a former colleageue, police historian T.A Critchely, re-creates this infamous crime. Containing all the complex characters and outstanding detective work we've come to associate with James's novels - as well as a London so real we are immersed in its rich textures and menacing shadows - The Maul and the Pear Tree is an irresistible tale of suspense. As James and Critcheley scour old records for clues overlooked by the city police force, they prove the wrong man was arrested. Then they name the killer who went free.
