Thriller | Mystery Woman Sleuth
Summer, 1936: Josephine Tey joins her friends in the resort
village of Portmeirion to celebrate her fortieth birthday.
Alfred Hitchcock and his wife, Alma Reville, are there to
sign a deal to film Josephine’s novel, A Shilling for
Candles, and Alfred Hitchcock has one or two tricks up his
sleeve to keep the holiday party entertained—and expose
their deepest fears. But things get out of hand when one of
Hollywood’s leading actresses is brutally slashed to death
in a cemetery near the village. The following day, fear and
suspicion take over in a setting where nothing—and no one—is
quite what it seems. Based in part on the life of Josephine
Tey—one of the most popular, best-loved crime writers of the
Golden Age, Nicola Upson’s Fear in the Sunlight features
legendary film director Alfred Hitchcock as a prominent
character—and features the classic suspense and
psychological tension that fans of Hitchcock films love.
