A Roderick Alleyn story, in Peter Wimsey vein. First rate yarn,
with unusual set-up in murder of artist model in view of whole
class, everyone of whom is suspect, and most of whom had the
opportunity. Clues point hither and yon, but most of them to one
man - who is found murdered also. There's a romance throughout -
and good background stuff. A sloppy piece of editing and
proof-reading keep it out of the top class. (Kirkus Reviews)
One of Ngaio Marsh's most famous murder mysteries, which introduces
Inspector Alleyn to his future wife, the irrepressible Agatha Troy.
It started as a student exercise, the knife under the drape, the
model's pose chalked in place. But before Agatha Troy, artist and
instructor, returns to the class, the pose has been re-enacted in
earnest: the model is dead, fixed for ever in one of the most
dramatic poses Troy has ever seen. It's a difficult case for Chief
Detective Inspector Alleyn. How can he believe that the woman he
loves is a murderess? And yet no one can be above suspicion...
