«Asesinato de calidad» is the crime novel by John le Carré, published by Plaza & Janés in paperback (176 pages, in Spanish).
George Smiley investigates the death of Stella Rode, whose body is found in an academic setting of impeccable appearance. What seems like a dead-end case fills with contradictions and secrets: among the faculty, the victim's virtues become an uncomfortable motive and minor ambitions sketch a crime less passionate than it appears.
It is the second of the nine novels in the George Smiley series. This Spanish edition was published by Plaza & Janés in 1993.
For mystery readers and for followers of the novels featuring George Smiley.
David John Moore Cornwell, known by his pen name John le Carré, was an English author. Many of his espionage novels have been adapted for film or television. He has been described as a "sophisticated, morally ambiguous writer", and is considered one of the greatest novelists of the postwar era. During the 1950s and 1960s, he worked for both the Security Service (MI5) and the Secret Intelligence Service (MI6). Near the end of his life, le Carré became an Irish citizen.
