Charlie M. (bookaddicted) - , reviewed on 7/16/2007 + 128 more book reviews

Helpful Score: 2

For fans of true British mysteries this book is a delight. Although it was written in 1929 there is still a contemporary feel to it. Tey twists the plot like a maze, always seeming to be at the solution before bringing in a new twist. This was also the book that introduced the detective Alan Grant, who appears in 5 subsequent novels.
