The daughter of time

 Josephine Tey

1951, via Meg

Interesting to read something written in the fifties, with different turns of language that we don't use any more.

Labelled as a crime /detective novel but it centers on historical facts surrounding Richard III and the Princes in the tower incident.

Despite popular thought, Richard was not responsible for their deaths. Pointing to Henry VII instead.

Nice story where a detective recovering in hospital investigates 'the historical truth'.
The daughter of time is the truth.
