    Attingendo profondamente al suo background di avvocato penalista, questa autrice crea narrazioni avvincenti che esplorano gli intricati panorami del crimine e della motivazione umana. Le sue storie si svolgono spesso sullo sfondo di ambientazioni evocative, in particolare luoghi costieri che alimentano il suo spirito creativo. Con un occhio attento alle sfumature psicologiche e uno stile di prosa fluido, si addentra nelle complessità morali affrontate dai suoi personaggi. Il suo lavoro offre ai lettori una profonda visione dell'intersezione tra legge, moralità e le domande persistenti della condizione umana.

      In Shadow Play, Frances Fyfield hones her powers of writerly suspense to give us a sophisticated, psychologically gripping tale about crimes of the most twisted passions. The odd, vaguely menacing little man called Mr. Logo is a familiar figure in the old court building in London. Although frequently brought before the magistrate for indecent assault, he is invariably acquitted due to lack of evidence. He is especially familiar to Helen West, the take-no-prisoners Crown Prosecutor who has just failed for the fifth time to prosecute him. Now he is off-limits to her until his next appearance in court. Yet, when she befriends Rose, the young, compulsively secretive and promiscuous clerk in the office, Helen West unwittingly sets in motion events that will dangerously complicate her connection to Mr. Logo and push his rage and dark passion to lethal extremes.
