Vera Caspary

    Vera Caspary bola uznávaná americká autorka, ktorej diela sa vyznačovali silnými nezávislými ženskými postavami. Jej raná kariéra bola poháňaná osobnou nutnosťou a v neskoršom veku sa jej tvorba stala prostriedkom na preskúmanie ľavicových myšlienok. Caspary sa vo svojich dielach často zaoberala spoločenskými otázkami, čo sa odrazilo aj v jej osobnej angažovanosti. Jej literárny odkaz spočíva v portrétoch silných žien, ktoré si razia vlastnú cestu vo svete.

      In the doorway of an elegant New York apartment, blood seeps over silk negligee, over polished wood floors and plush carpet: a beautiful young woman lies dead, her face disfigured by a single gun shot. How does her portrait bewitch even Mark McPherson, the hard-bitten detective assigned to find her murderer?
