The Daughter of TimeJosephine Tey BeeGee Dark Classics ¿ Book 11 A king accused. Two princes vanished. A verdict accepted for centuries. One detective decides to examine the evidence. Confined to a hospital bed with a broken leg, Scotland Yard Inspector Alan Grant becomes fascinated by a portrait of Richard III-the king remembered as a ruthless usurper and the murderer of the Princes in the Tower. But the familiar story troubles Grant. With the help of a young researcher, he begins treating history like an unsolved criminal case, questioning sources, motives, dates, witnesses, and the assumptions repeated from one generation to the next. First published in 1951, The Daughter of Time transforms one of England's most enduring historical mysteries into an ingenious work of detective fiction. More than a mystery about Richard III, it is a provocative exploration of evidence, reputation, historical memory, and the uncomfortable distance between what happened and what later generations came to believe. This BeeGee Dark Classics Edition Includes Editor's Introduction - The Detective Who Put History on Trial Josephine Tey: A Brief Life - The Private Writer Behind Alan Grant The World of Inspector Alan Grant Richard III and the Princes in the Tower - Historical Note Fact, Fiction, and Historical Debate History as a Crime Scene The Making of a Villain - Richard III, Shakespeare, and Reputation Timeline: Richard III and the Mystery of the Princes Who's Who in the Historical Investigation The Evidence File - Contemporary Evidence, Later Testimony, Disputed Claims & Unanswered Questions Reader's Guide & Book-Club Questions Read It Again - A Second Look at the Clues Further Reading A portrait begins the investigation. History becomes the crime scene. And one deceptively simple question changes everything: What can actually be proved?
