Tekst achterflap

Oxford, the morning after high table at Magdalen. Sir Edmund Hartwell, 78, President of Magdalen College since 2004, is found slumped in the wing chair of his Lodgings study, the decanter of fino sherry still on the side table and the cut-glass tumbler half empty beside it. Inspector Hartmann takes the case and slides the President's Day Book across the table. Inside: thousands of first names, twenty-two years of fellows, students and visitors in Sir Edmund's own hand, ending with the twelve who stayed for sherry after his last dinner. One of them belongs to the killer. SUSPEK is not a crime novel you simply read. It is a case you solve yourself. Read the clues, cross out the innocent and find the killer before the trail goes cold. SUSPEK is puzzle-crime on paper. Reading, puzzling, thinking, no screen, no app. You sit at the table with the book, cross out names, compare lists and follow every trace. At the end, one name remains.
