The Midnight Alibi – Ngaio Marsh | Inspector Alleyn Mysteries

Описание: Was it a moment of madness — or a murder carefully timed to the second? When a body is found just after midnight, suspicion falls quickly… but the prime suspect has an airtight alibi. Too airtight. Chief Detective-Inspector Roderick Alleyn is called in to unravel a case where time itself seems to be on trial. In a world of fractured timelines, shadowed motives, and perfect lies, he must find the truth hidden between the chimes of the clock.

Ngaio Marsh – The Midnight Alibi is a masterclass in psychological tension and classic British crime. With her signature wit and insight, Marsh delivers a tightly wound mystery where every tick of the second hand counts — and the past refuses to stay buried.
