Beschreibung

Oxford, 1660s. A scholar is dead, a woman stands accused, and four men tell their versions of the truth.

Each testimony contradicts the last - and only one reveals what truly happened.

Pears' sweeping novel combines intellectual intrigue with page-turning mystery. An Instance of the Fingerpost is a triumph of storytelling: erudite, immersive and utterly gripping.

'A novel that combines the simple pleasures of Agatha Christie with the intellectual subtlety of Umberto Eco' The Times
