"The Last Hours is the first book this remarkable author has penned in over a decade. Minette Walters turns her talents in a bold new direction; a sweeping, utterly gripping historical novel set during the time of the Black Death in Dorset. Minette Walters is one of the world's best-selling crime writers and she has won several literary awards, including two CWA Gold Daggers for Fiction. She has been a master of crime fiction for nearly two decades and The Last Hours only supports her reign."
