Sara Sheridan Bücher
Diese Autorin taucht mit tiefer und beständiger Liebe in den Reichtum der Literatur ein und teilt ihre Faszination mit den Lesern. Ihre Schriften befassen sich mit der Erforschung der Kolonialzeit und erwecken insbesondere die Abenteuer georgischer und viktorianischer Entdecker zum Leben. Gleichzeitig fängt sie anmutig das Wesen des Großbritanniens der 1950er Jahre ein, eine Periode, die sie meisterhaft in Kriminalromanen mit den Kulissen Londons und Brightons hervorruft.
