A woman called Lesley Cameron has left everything she owns to a complete stranger, the psychiatrist Dr Fidelis Berlin - but why? And what did Ms Cameron have to do with Murdo, now a high court judge, who is the son of Fidelis's oldest friend and mentor? Investigating the mysterious legacy, Fidelis finds herself questioning not only Lesley's life and violent death, but also her own emotions as she slowly comes to terms with illness and mortality.

Review
"- 'Jessica Mann's name on the cover is a sign of quality crime fiction.' - Susanna Yager, Sunday Telegraph - 'Neat, deft, professional, decently puzzling... it should have a place of honour on the national reading list.' - Tim Heald, Express - 'Has a mystery and urgency which makes much of contemporary storytelling appear nerveless in comparison...'Anita Brookner, Spectator

5.0 out of 5 stars
Fantastic book, beautifully read.,
This review is from: Voice from the Grave (Audio Cassette)
I really can't fault this lovely book. Jessica Mann at her best. It is wonderfully suspenseful and keeps you guessing right to the very end. The lead character is Fidelis Berlin who has appeared briefly in another of Ms Mann's novels "Under a Dark Sun". Penelope Freeman's voice is a perfect match to the book, with great characterisations and in particular, the gentle Welsh lilt of Fidelis herself captured perfectly. A five star book, beautifully read.
