No Graves As Yet by Anne Perry, ISBN 9780755322251

> Fiction Books > Crime Books

'No Graves As Yet' is the utterly compelling first of a five-novel sequence that is a searing, ambitious and masterly portrait of England through the First World War.

In the idyllic summer of 1914, the battle liens are already drawn . . .

In Cambridge, in 1914, the golden June days seem timeless. But for Joseph Reavley, a university don, the idyllic summer is shattered by his parents' deaths in a car accident.

Bringing the terrible news, his brother reveals that their father, a retired MP, had been travelling to see him about a sinister plot he had discovered. Matthew's job in the secret service means that he would understand the mysterious document their father possessed, but when the brothers hunt for it, the document is nowhere to be found.

Returning after the funeral with their two sisters, Joseph and Matthew become convinced that their parents' house has been searched. Does someone else know of the missing document? As their suspicions grow, they visit the scene of the crash and examine their parents' ruined car, and find subtle evidence that their deaths may not have been accidental after all.

About the Author: Anne Perry

Anne's publishing career began with The Cater Street Hangman. Published in 1979, this was the first book in the series to feature the Victorian policeman Thomas Pitt and his well-born wife Charlotte. This is arguably the longest sustained crime series by a living writer. Buckingham Palace Gardens, the latest in the series, appeared in the New York Times Bestsellers List in April 2008.

In 1990, Anne started a second series of detective novels with The Face of a Stranger. These are set about 35 years before and features the private detective William Monk and volatile nurse Hester Latterly. The most recent of these (15th in the series) is The Dark Assassin which appeared in the New York Times Bestsellers List.

Anne won an Edgar award in 2000 with her short story "Heroes". The main character in the story features in an ambitious five-book series set during the First World War. The last of these was recently published, in Autumn 2007. None of her books has ever been out of print, and they have received critical acclaim and huge popular success: over 20 million books are in print world-wide. Her books have appeared on bestseller lists in a number of foreign countries, where she has also had excellent reviews. The Times selected her as one of the "100 Masters of Crime".
Anne is now working on more titles in the Pitt and Monk series, and has just delivered a stand-alone epic set in the exotic and dangerous world of the Byzantine Empire.
