    I delitti Mitford: L'assassinio di Florence Nightingale Shore
    • È il 1919 e Louisa Cannon sogna di sfuggire a una vita di povertà e, soprattutto, all’opprimente e pericoloso zio, che vorrebbe sanare i propri debiti «offrendo» la nipote a uomini di dubbia reputazione. La salvezza di Louisa è un posto di lavoro presso la famiglia Mitford ad Asthall Manor, nella campagna dell’Oxfordshire. Dopo diverse peripezie Louisa riesce a farsi assumere. Diventerà istitutrice, chaperon e confidente delle sei sorelle Mitford, specialmente della sedicenne Nancy - una giovane donna intelligente e curiosa con un talento particolare per le storie. Ma quando un’infermiera - Florence Nightingale Shore, figlioccia della sua celebre omonima - viene assassinata in pieno giorno su un treno in corsa, Louisa e Nancy si troveranno per caso coinvolte nelle indagini del giovane e timidissimo Guy Sullivan, agente della polizia ferroviaria di Londra, Brighton & South Coast e nei progetti criminali di un assassino che farà di tutto per mantenere segreta la propria identità… Basato sul vero omicidio, rimasto irrisolto, di Florence Nightingale Shore, questo è il primo romanzo di una serie di gialli intitolata I delitti Mitford , ambientata negli anni Venti e Trenta con protagoniste le sei «leggendarie» sorelle Mitford.

    • The Chronicles of Downton Abbey, carefully pieced together at the heart and hearth of the ancestral home of the Crawleys, takes readers deeper into the story of every important member of the Downton estate.

      The Chronicles of Downton Abbey
    • It's 1941, and the Mitford household is splintered by the vicissitudes of war. To bring the clan together -- maybe for one last time, Deborah invites them to Chatsworth for Christmas, along with a selection of society's most impressive and glamorous guests, as well as old family friend Louisa Cannon, a private detective.

      The Mitford Secret: A Mitford Murders Mystery
    • 'Come war and peace Downton still stands and the Crawleys are still in it.' Downton Abbey is loved the world over for its fabulous costumes, beautiful scenery, wonderful characters and intricate plot lines, but what keeps millions of us coming back time after time is the stellar quality of the writing. With each stroke of his pen Julian Fellowes seems to gift us with a cuttingly dry quip from the Dowager Countess, a perfectly timed word of wisdom from Mrs Patmore or a touchingly nostalgic pronouncement from Carson. Here in the The Wit and Wisdom of Downton Abbey, Jessica Fellowes has gathered together her favourite quotes from the complete Downton Abbey oeuvre to take each of us back to the most memorable moments from the show and ensure we are armed with the very best ripostes should we ever need to chastise an impertinent lady's maid.
