Review:
From the Back Cover:
‘Faithful to the hallowed conventions of English detection... a fine swansong.’
Observer
‘As always she writes most elegantly.’
Daily Telegraph
‘Still, quite simply, the greatest exponent of the classical English detective story.’
Daily Telegraph
THE ALLEYN MYSTERIES
Peregrine Jay, owner of the Dolphin Theatre, is putting on a magnificent production of 'Macbeth', the play that, superstition says, always brings bad luck.
But one night the claymore swings and the dummy's head is more that real: murder behind the scene.
Luckily, Chief Superintendent Roderick Alleyn is in the audience...
"Faithful to the hallowed conventions of English detection...a fine swan-song"
OBSERVER
"As always she writes most elegantly"
DAILY TELEGRAPH
"The finest writer in the English language of the pure, classical puzzle whodunnit. Among the crime queens, Ngaio Marsh stands out as an express."
