To Love and Be Wise

A witty and sophisticated British mystery featuring bestselling author Josephine Tey’s popular Inspector Alan Grant, a beloved character created by a woman considered to be one of the greatest mystery writers of all time.

Literary sherry parties are not Alan Grant’s cup of tea. But when the Scotland Yard Inspector finds himself at one, he can’t help but be struck by one of the guests, a handsome young American photographer names Leslie Searle. With support from author Lavinia Fitch, Searle quickly becomes an insider in an exclusive art colony at Salcott St. Mary. Inspector Grant never expected their paths to cross again, but when Searle goes missing, it’s up to Grant to determine what happened.

Had Searle drowned by accident or could he have been murdered by one of his young women admirers? Was it a possible case of suicide or had the photographer simply vanished for reasons of his own?
