A Coat of Varnish

Více o knize

Set against a backdrop of a sweltering London heatwave, the brutal murder of elderly Lady Ashbrook sparks an intense investigation led by Chief Superintendent Briers. As he narrows down his focus to three main suspects, Briers grapples with a moral quandary after identifying the murderer without sufficient evidence for prosecution. This adaptation of C. P. Snow's novel, skillfully dramatized by Ronald Millar, originally premiered at the Theatre Royal, Haymarket, in 1982, exploring themes of justice and ethical dilemmas.
