`Through the double clamour of Big Ben and the shrill sound of the
bell rang a revolver shot.' A financier is found shot in the House
of Commons. Suspecting foul play, Robert West, a parliamentary
private secretary, takes on the role of amateur sleuth. Used to
turning a blind eye to covert dealings, West must now uncover the
shocking secret behind the man's demise, amid distractions from the
press and the dead man's enigmatic daughter. Originally published
in 1932, this was the only mystery novel to be written by Ellen
Wilkinson, one of the first women to be elected to Parliament.
Wilkinson offers a unique insider's perspective of political
scandal, replete with sharp satire.
