"The Daughter of Time" by Josephine Tey
A comment above about older books reminded me of one of the best mystery novels I've read, "The Daughter of Time" by Josephine Tey. I'd stumbled upon Tey at a dead people sale or used book store and enjoyed her earlier works. But finding "The Daughter of Time" was heaven. Coincidentally, I had also recently read another mystery centered on a "retrial" of Richard III, so this one fit right in the wheel well.
Then a few years later, the Wash Post had this excellent review by Jonathan Yardley: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn...2003Mar11.html Though like most Post writers, Yardley might be half a communist, his reviews were always insightful. And he had started doing reviews of some older and almost forgotten books. These reviews were delightful. `
