'If much of the action is set in a bookshop or a library, it is a
bibliomystery, just as it is if a major character is a bookseller
or a librarian.' - Otto Penzler A bookish puzzle threatens an
eagerly awaited inheritance; a submission to a publisher recounts a
murder that seems increasingly to be a work of non-fiction; an
irate novelist puts a grisly end to the source of his writer's
block. There is no better hiding place for clues - or red herrings
- than inside the pages of a book. But in this world of resentful
ghost writers, indiscreet playwrights and unscrupulous book
collectors, literary prowess is often a prologue to disaster. With
Martin Edwards as librarian and guide, delve into an irresistible
stack of tales perfect for every book-lover and armchair sleuth,
featuring much-loved Golden Age detectives such as Nigel
Strangeways, Philip Trent and Detective Chief Inspector Roderick
Alleyn. But readers should be warned that the most riveting tales
often conceal the deadliest of secrets...
