Caroline Graham (b. 1931) is perhaps the only classic of the English detective of the New Age, almost unknown to Russian readers. Meanwhile, it is she who is called in England the direct literary heiress of Agatha Christie, and it is according to her novels that one of the most popular detective television series "Midsomer Murders" ("Purely English Murders"), which has not gone from television, has been from the TVs for twenty seasons. The writer"s work was awarded the prestigious literary prize "Macavity Eward", and the book "Murders in the Baders Drive" was included in the list "hundred best detective novels of all time." "Death under the mask" is the third novel from the cycle of detective stories about the Barnabi inspector. In the village of Komton-Dondo there is a mysterious secluded estate in which the Golden Horse Commune settled-the spiritual and esoteric community. One of the founders of the commune died, as a result of an accident. The company is led by the respected Ian Craigi - a teacher, and members of the commune united around him, each of whom brought their own confusing story there. Once, during a session of the movement of souls, a terrible murder occurs, and the famous Barnaby inspector with his assistant Sergeant Troy comes out onto the stage. The cunning moves and unsolved secrets, the philosophy of Zen Buddhism and the revealed fraud, the rich inheritance, love, envy and sincere faith - the reader will find a truly exciting reading, which keeps in tension to the last page
