About This Item
New York: St. Martin's, 1997. First Edition. Hardcover. Fine/fine. 1st edition of the first William Murdoch novel, begetting the CBC television series that began in 2008 and continues today in its 17th season. Signed on the title page. Fine in fine dustjacket. It's usually safe to assume that people are more subtle and less sensitive than they appear.
Synopsis
MAUREEN JENNINGS's first novel in the Detective Murdoch series, Except the Dying , was published to rave reviews and shortlisted for both the Arthur Ellis and the Anthony first novel awards. The influential Drood Review picked Poor Tom Is Cold as one of its favourite mysteries of 2001. Let Loose the Dogs was shortlisted for the 2004 Anthony Award for best historical mystery. Night's Child was shortlisted for the Arthur Ellis Award, the Bruce Alexander Historical Mystery Award, the Barry Award, and the Macavity Historical Mystery Award. And A Journeyman to Grief was nominated for the Arthur Ellis Award. Three of the Detective Murdoch novels have been adapted for television, and a Granada International television series, The Murdoch Mysteries , based on the characters from the novels, is entering its third season on CityTV and UKTV.
