Recenzii
"[A]
stunning
memoir
.
.
.
.
A
former
journalist,
[Lefebure]
evokes
the
physical
and
emotional
terrain
of
crime
scenes
and
the
circumstances
of
death
with
adroit
detachment,
yet
also
authoritative
depth
.
.
.
.
She
is
such
a
wonderful,
arch,
thinking,
intelligent
guide
to
this
strange
underworld
that
you
don't
want
Lefebure's
wonderful
tales
to
end.
.
.
.[She]
has
bequeathed
us
a
book
which
teaches
so
much
about
death-taking
away
much
of
the
worst
kind
of
fear
and
mystery
around
it,
while
reminding
us
that
so
much
about
it
remains
necessarily
unknowable.
It's
a
lesson
imparted
with
the
best
kind
of
wry
smile."—The
Daily
Beast
"Lefebure's narration provides a welcome alternative to wartime era tales; she's a young, single, professional woman, not a soldier or an evacuated Londoner. A sympathetic narrator and an engrossing read."—Historical Novel Society
"A secretary to a formidable London pathologist during World War II reissues her wry, grisly account of murder and corpses, first published in 1955. . . Lefebure's youthful bravery shines through, while the grim conditions showcase her terrific wit. Preserves like a frozen capsule the British grin-and-bear-it spirit and vocabulary of the WWII years."—Kirkus Reviews
"Gripping. . . like a pitch-dark version of Call the Midwife, dealing with the end of life rather than the beginning . . . Full of fascinating incidents, it is easy to see why this has been made into a drama by the creators ofDownton Abbey.—Sunday Mirror(UK)
"A fascinating behind-the-scenes look at mid-century crime-fighting."—TheIndependent(UK)
