内容简介

You look exactly like him! You can take the dead boy’s place and no one will ever know the difference. You’ll be rich for life!’

And so the plan was born. At first Brat Farrar fought against the idea; it was criminal, it was dangerous. But in the end he was persuaded, and a few weeks later Patrick Ashby came back from the dead and went home to inherit the family house and fortune. The Ashby family seemed happy to welcome Patrick home, but Brat soon realized that somewhere there was a time-bomb ticking away, waiting to explode . . .

作者简介

约瑟芬·铁伊，1897年生于苏格兰因弗内斯，就读于当地的皇家学院。之后，在伯明翰的安斯地物理训练学院接受三年训练，然后开始物理训练讲师的生涯。后来，她辞去教职照顾她住在洛克耐斯的父亲，并开始写作。

这位英籍女作家，是20世纪30年代以来，推理史最辉煌的第二黄金期三大女杰之一，也是其中最特立独行的一位。和她齐名的阿加莎·克里斯蒂、多萝西·榭尔斯都是大产量、行销惊人的作家，铁伊却穷尽一生之力只写了八部推理小说，八部水准齐一的好小说——是推理史上极少数一生没有任何失败作品的大师。
