Review
'This is a witty and meticulous recreation of the class-ridden middle England of the 1930s... a perfect example of golden-age mystery traditions with the cobwebs swept away, for the many readers who like their sleuthing elegant and their sex and violence concealed behind the curtains.' - The Guardian; 'Roberts' use of period detail... gives the tale terrific texture. Recommend this one heartily to history-mystery devotees.' - Booklist; 'A classic murder mystery with as complex a plot as one could hope for and a most engaging pair of amateur sleuths whom I look forward to encountering again in future novels.' --Charles Osborne, author of The Life and Times of Agatha Christie
