The Death of a Much-Travelled Woman

The Death of a Much-Travelled Woman gathers in one volume the exploits and mishaps of globe-trotting translator-sleuth Cassandra Reilly. Well known to readers for her madcap investigations in Barcelona (Gaudi Afternoon) and Romania (Trouble in Transylvania), Cassandra journeys in these nine stories to such varied locations as Helsinki, Hawaii, Vladivostock, Reykjavik, and the English countryside. The thefts, murders, and other crimes she's called on to help solve are engagingly literary, with more than a dash of satire aimed at publishers, editors, writers, and, of course, translators.Goodhearted, witty, and rakishly, unabashedly lesbian, Cassandra Reilly is a wonderful traveling companion for armchair or train compartment.
