Produktbeschreibung

This carefully crafted ebook: "THE BLUE DIAMOND (Thriller Classic)" is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents. The Blue Diamond - A beautiful young woman, who seems to have lost her memory, is found wandering in Sir Arthur Hargreaves' estate. But soon the nurse who's supposed to be in-charge of her and knows her real self is reported missing. The police are called in and they suspect that there is a link between the nurse's disappearance and the legend of the valuable family diamond. Will Sir Arthur ever get to know the truth? Will the family diamond ever return to its rightful owner? Read on! Annie Haynes (1865-1929) was a renowned golden age mystery writer and a contemporary of Agatha Christie, another famous crime writer, which often led to her comparison with the latter, and unfavourably so. Haynes's fictions are now lauded for their quick-pace action and sustaining aura of suspense till the end.

Autorenporträt

Annie Haynes was born in 1865, the daughter of an ironmonger. By the first decade of the twentieth century she lived in London and moved in literary and early feminist circles. Her first crime novel, The Bungalow Mystery, appeared in 1923, and another nine mysteries were published before her untimely death in 1929. Who Killed Charmian Karslake? appeared posthumously, and a further partially-finished work, The Crystal Beads Murder, was completed with the assistance of an unknown fellow writer, and published in 1930.
