In the Night. Illustrated

Lord Gorell,

About this book

In the Night is a rare and haunting mystery from Lord Gorell, blending suspense, introspection, and elegant prose into a story that lingers long after the final page. Known more for his distinguished career in law and public service, Lord Gorell (George Garro-Jones) also made a brief but memorable foray into fiction—this novel being one of his most compelling contributions. Set against the shadowy backdrop of post-war England, In the Night opens with an unsettling discovery: a body found under mysterious circumstances, the only witnesses to the crime being the darkened hours and whispers of those who would rather forget. What follows is not just an investigation into a death, but a deeper exploration of guilt, memory, and the secrets people keep hidden when the lights go out. With its quiet psychological tension and moody atmosphere, the novel leans into the uncertainties of human behavior, evoking the style of authors like E.M. Delafield and early Elizabeth Bowen. The mystery unfolds gradually, drawing readers into a world where truth is obscured by respectability, and clarity only comes when one dares to see clearly—in the night. Elegant, reflective, and quietly suspenseful, In the Night is a forgotten gem for readers who enjoy mysteries with depth, subtlety, and literary grace.
