Alan Bradley

Per Flavia de Luce, argutissima adolescente detective, intrighi e segreti pieni di suspense in un college canadese carico di tradizioni frequentato a suo tempo dalla madre Harriet. È l'occasione per penetrare nel mistero che circonda la sua figura, e Flavia non se la lascerà scappare!

Flavia de Luce, l'audace undicenne con un talento sherlockiano per la chimica e per il delitto, si trova presa in un groviglio che questa volta la tocca negli affetti più cari.

Sebbene non sia praticante, a Flavia de Luce piace l'atmosfera della parrocchia in questo cinquecentesimo anniversario della morte di San Tancredi.

Un triste Natale si profila per l'undicenne Flavia de Luce e nemmeno gli amati esperimenti di chimica, da un po' di tempo tendenti irresistibilmente a sintetizzare veleni, riescono a consolarla.

Un banale guasto al furgone costringe il più grande burattinaio inglese, Rupert Porson a fermarsi per qualche giorno a Bishop's Lacey, l'immaginario paesino inglese negli anni Cinquanta scenario delle avventure di Flavia de Luce. Quale migliore occasione per uno spettacolo di marionette?

Flavia de Luce fa un'orrida scoperta. Nell'orto dei cetrioli, proprio sotto la finestra della sua camera da letto, inciampa in piena notte in un corpo semisepolto; esalando l'ultimo respiro, l'uomo sussurra una strana parola: "Vale!".
