Linscott, Gillian AN EASY DAY FOR A LADY
New York St Martins Pr 1995 0312118112 / 9780312118112 First Edition; First Printing Hardcover Fine in Fine dust jacket
0.9 x 8.3 x 5.8 Inches; 210 pages; Energetic suffragette Nell Bray, off on a climbing holiday, sees a rescue team unearthing an Englishman lost to a glacier thirty years ago and cannot resist getting involved when she learns his death may not have been an accident. It's 1910, and nosy, energetic Nell Bray, British suffragette and sometime sleuth seen last in Stage Fright, is vacationing at the resort town of Chamonix in the French Alps. Nell is climbing a mountain slope when the body of Arthur Mordiford is freed from the ice nearby?30 years after he and his guide were lost to an avalanche. Arriving to claim the body are the victim's wealthy brother Gregory (a member of the original climbing party), who has brought his son, daughter and a nephew, who hires Nell as interpreter to help with the red tape. They are staying with the guide's widow, Marie, and her daughter Sylvie. A diary found on Arthur's body raises questions about Sylvie's parentage and tensions abound, reaching a climax after Gregory, leading a family pilgrimage to the site of the body's discovery, is poisoned and Marie is arrested for his murder. Nell joins forces with Arthur's onetime fiancee, for many years a contented recluse in the area, to find the truth about the brothers' deaths, past and present. Plotting goes from over-elaborate to numbing in this tale best recommended for its well-crafted evocation of time and place. Copyright 1995 Reed Business Information, Inc.
