These beautiful books make perfect gifts or a treat for any book lover. This edition is introduced by writer David Stuart Davies.<br><br>Inspector Alan Grant is laid up in hospital with a spinal injury and he&rsquo;s bored. Renowned for his ability to read a face, he passes the time looking at old portraits and one which particularly grabs his attention is of Richard III, the supposed arch villain who killed his own nephews, &lsquo;the princes in the tower&rsquo;.

But Grant doesn&rsquo;t accept the face in the portrait is the face of a villain so he sets out to investigate what really happened. An unusual premise for a crime novel perhaps, but nevertheless an extremely clever and engrossing one, brilliantly plotted and written with enormous charm and erudition.</p>
