Author: George Bellairs

Some of the best mystery writers come out of the UK. This one was published in 1951 so it is a bit dated but as I read it (on my Kindle) I could see the story playing out as a TV show. There are lots of odd characters and I didn’t sort out the mystery until very near the end of the book. There are a number of books starring Inspector Littlejohn – this was #18 in the series.
