Centered around Inspector Alan Grant, who is confined to a hospital bed, the narrative unfolds as he investigates the circumstances surrounding the alleged murder of the princes in the Tower. Teys prose is both engaging and incisive, characterized by her ability to weave intricate historical details into a modern-day detective story.

Marta Hallard, an actress friend of his, suggests that he should amuse himself by researching a historical mystery. She brings him some pictures of historical characters, aware of Grants interest in human faces. He becomes intrigued by a portrait of King Richard III. He prides himself on being able to read a persons character from his appearance, and King Richard seems to him a gentle, kind and wise man. Why is everyone so sure that he was a cruel murderer? With the help of other friends and acquaintances, Grant investigates Richards life and the case of the Princes in the Tower, testing out his theories on the doctors and nurses who attend to him. Grant spends weeks pondering historical information and documents with the help of Brent Carradine, a likable young American researcher working in the British Museum. Using his detectives logic, he tries to come to the conclusion whether the claim of Richard being a murderer is a fabrication of Tudor propaganda, or was he really a monstrous hunchback. The Daughter of Time was voted greatest mystery novel of all time by the Crime Writers Association in 1990.</p>...(*_*)9788028282004_<p>In The Daughter of Time, Josephine Tey skillfully merges mystery with historical inquiry, challenging the perceptions surrounding the infamous figure of Richard III.
