Synopsis
Mystery crime fiction written in the Golden Age of Murder
"[W]orthy of Agatha Christie at her fiendish plotting best." --Booklist STARRED review
Two classic cases featuring Detective Inspector Littlejohn.
In the winter of 1940, the Home Guard unearth a skeleton on the moor above the busy town of Hatterworth. Twenty-three years earlier, the body of a young textile worker was found in the same spot, and the prime suspect was never found--but the second body is now identified as his. Soon it becomes clear that the true murderer is still at large...
* * *
Nathaniel Wall, the local quack doctor, is found hanging in his consulting room in the Norfolk village of Stalden--but this was not a suicide. Against the backdrop of a close-knit country village, an intriguing story of ambition, blackmail, fraud, false alibis and botanical trickery unravels.
