Ngaio Marsh Volgorde van de boeken (chronologisch)
23 april 1895 – 18 februari 1982
Ngaio Marsh was een meesterlijke verteller wiens misdaadromans doordrenkt zijn van haar diepe waardering voor theater en schilderkunst. Gedurende een carrière van vijftig jaar creëerde ze ingewikkelde mysteries, waarbij ze de memorabele detective Roderick Alleyn introduceerde. Marshs werken verkennen vaak de dramatische werelden van het podium en het kunstenaarsatelier, waarbij spanning wordt gecombineerd met scherpe observaties van de menselijke natuur. Haar onderscheidende stijl en thematische diepgang bevestigden haar nalatenschap als een prominente figuur in de gouden eeuw van de detectivefictie.
