Description
Patricia Wentworth’s Miss Silver Series continues with Anna, Where Are You? , The Watersplash , and Out of the Past , each deepening Miss Maud Silver’s role as a quietly formidable detective whose intuition and compassion pierce the darkest human motives. In Anna, Where Are You?, a young woman vanishes after taking a job as a companion in a remote village. When her friend seeks Miss Silver’s help, the search uncovers a sinister pattern of lies, jealousy, and manipulation beneath a façade of respectability. The Watersplash brings Miss Silver to a peaceful village unsettled by scandal and a mysterious inheritance. A body found near the local stream revives old gossip, and Miss Silver’s delicate yet incisive questioning reveals a long-buried crime. Out of the Past begins when a woman thought dead returns to claim her old life—only to meet a violent end. As Miss Silver investigates, she exposes guilt, passion, and betrayal stretching across years. These three novels capture Wentworth’s gift for crafting moral, character-driven mysteries. Miss Silver—calm, observant, and unfailingly just—acts as both sleuth and healer, restoring truth and balance to a world of quiet domestic tensions and hidden sins.
