Mrs Mohr Goes Missing

Long-listed for the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development Literature Prize  Praise for Mrs. Mohr Goes Missing “[An] exceptional debut and series launch… The translation showcases the novel’s deliciously ironic voice. Fans who like colorful locales and tongue-in-cheek mysteries will eagerly await Zofia's next outing.” Publishers Weekly, STARRED review   “A delightful debut whodunit written with abundant wit and flair. Pray for a series to follow.” Kirkus Reviews   “Mrs. Mohr Goes Missing an amazing Polish mystery—fascinating for its vivid portrayal of 1893 Krakow, its witty style, and for Zofia, its irrepressible sleuth. The Daily Mail called it ingenious—we call this new author ‘marvelous!’”  —Charles Todd, New York Times-bestselling author of the Inspector Ian Rutledge mysteries   “An ingenious marriage of comedy and crime.” —Olga Tokarczuk, Nobel laureate and author of Man Booker International Prize winner Flights   “The unravelling of the mystery is ingenious and takes us through a social setting quivering with snobberies and dos and don’ts. It’s fun and sparky and the glimpse of turn-of-the-century Polish manners and mores is beguiling.” —Daily Mail   “Charming and moreish…Conjures up the delightful books of Dorothy L Sayers … The perfect diversion for annoying commutes.” —Stylist   “While there is a strong whiff of Agatha Christie in this book, it is much more than a pastiche … The story fuses high comedy with an evocative portrayal of the period … Ably translated.” —Sunday Express   “Highly comical … An extremely absorbing novel.” —Kurzojady
