Miss Silver Reeks

Deze serie volgt de avonturen van een scherpzinnige en goedgehertige voormalige gouvernante die met pensioen gaat en privédetective wordt. Met een uniek begrip van de menselijke natuur en een focus op logica en deductie, pakt ze zaken aan die zich vaak afspelen tegen de achtergrond van de Londense high society. Haar methoden zijn subtiel maar volhardend, altijd strevend naar gerechtigheid met gratie en inzicht.
