'Powerful and impressive ...there is a fine inevitability in the
plot structure which gives it true tragic quality' - Dorothy L.
SayersAdrian Gray was born in May 1862 and met his death through
violence, at the hands of one of his own children, at Christmas,
1931. Thus begins a classic crime novel published in 1933, a
riveting portrait of the psychology of a murderer. Each December,
Adrian Gray invites his extended family to stay at his lonely
house, Kings Poplars. None of Gray's six surviving children is fond
of him; several have cause to wish him dead. The family gathers on
Christmas Eve - and by the following morning, their wish has been
granted. This fascinating and unusual novel tells the story of what
happened that dark Christmas night; and what the murderer did next.
