Krimi Noir vom Feinsten An einem lauen Sommerabend kehrt Marjorie, eine „desperate housewife“ der Dreißigerjahre, von einem Abend mit ihrer kinderlosen Freundin in London in die Vorstadt zurück. Als sie die Küchentür öffnet, um ihre babysittende Schwester Dot von ihrer Pflicht zu erlösen, findet sie diese mit friedlichem Gesichtsausdruck in einem geblümten Sommerkleid auf dem Küchenboden liegen – den Kopf im Gasherd. Es ist die Mutter der beiden Frauen, die von Anfang an an dem vermeintlichen Selbstmord zweifelt. Bald schon findet sie heraus, wer der Mörder ihrer Tochter ist. Foresters meisterhafter psychologischer Thriller um Mord, Liebe, Lust, Eifersucht und Rache führt in die Abgründe der menschlichen Seele und porträtiert eindrucksvoll die Londoner Vorstadt der Dreißigerjahre. Der 1935 entstandene Roman war jahrzehntelang verschollen. Er tauchte erst 2002, viele Jahre nach dem Tod des Autors, auf einer Christie's Auktion auf. Eine faszinierende Entdeckung für alle Krimifans! 'Tödliche Ohnmacht' stand auf den KrimiZEIT-Bestenlisten September und Oktober 2013.
