Despre Trent’s Last Case carte
Written in reaction to what Bentley perceived as the sterility and artificiality of the detective fiction of his day, Trent's Last Case features Philip Trent, an all-too-human detective who not only falls in love with the chief suspect but reaches a brilliant conclusion that is totally wrong.
Trent’s Last Case begins when millionaire American financier Sigsbee Manderson is murdered while on holiday in England. A London newspaper sends Trent to investigate, and he is soon matching wits with Scotland Yard's Inspector Murth as they probe ever deeper in search of a solution to a mystery filled with odd, mysterious twists and turns.
Called by Agatha Christie "one of the best detective stories ever written," Trent's Last Case delights with its flesh-and-blood characters, its naturalness and easy humor, and its style, which, as Dorothy Sayers has noted, "ranges from a vividly coloured rhetoric to a delicate and ironical literary fancy."

E. C. Bentley
Edmund Clerihew Bentley was born in London in 1875; most of his working life was spent at the Daily Telegraph and as a literary critic in. Later in life he became President of the Detection Club, and contributed to the early collaborative efforts of the Detection Club, Behind the Screen and The Scoop in 1930 and 1931. But his reputation as a detective story writer rests almost entirely on his first detective novel. He died in London in March 1956.
