Death in Focus

Death in Focus (Elena Standish #1)

Death in Focus by Anne Perry

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


I’m a big fan of Anne Perry’s Inspector Monk series (though less so of her novels with the Pitt family), and was eager to see what she would do with a very different time period–Europe in the 1930’s between the world wars. Elena Standish is a smart–though somewhat naive–young woman with a mission and a vision. As a photographer, she is interested in colors and shadows as she looks through her viewfinder, but soon finds that her camera is essential to capturing the maelstrom in Germany. This is recommended for fans of Maisie Dobbs and Maggie Hope, and I look forward to reading further entries in this new series.
