Ten years since it was first published in hardback, and now for the
first time in mass market paperback, this volume of short stories
by the cream of British crime writing talent celebrates 75 years of
the quintessential Detection Club. The Detection Club represents
the cream of British crime writing talent. Founded on the cusp of
the 1930s, the Club's first President was G.K. Chesterton, and
since then the mantle of Presidency has passed to some of the most
significant names inthe history of crime fiction, including Agatha
Christie, Dorothy L. Sayers and Julian Symons. The Club meets three
times a year - to dine, to plot, and to exchange ideas. This
anthology includes eleven new stories by the Best of British:
Robert Barnard, Lyndsey Davis, Colin Dexter, Clare Francis, Robert
Goddard, John Harvey, Reginald Hill, P.D. James, H.R.F. Keating,
Michael Ridpath and Margaret Yorke, and has been edited by the
Club's President, Simon Brett. Among the authors are a number of
bestsellers, as well as winners of both Diamond and Gold Daggers.
This outstanding collection is a must for crime lovers everywhere.

The world is classic Jane Austen. The mystery is vintage P.D. James.
In their six years of marriage, Elizabeth and Darcy have forged a
peaceful, happy life for their family at Pemberley, Darcy's impressive
estate.
But on the eve of their annual autumn ball, chaos descends. A chaise
appears, rocking down the path from Pemberley's wild woodland. As it
pulls up, Lydia Wickham - Elizabeth Bennet's younger, unreliable sister
- stumbles out screaming that her husband has been murdered.
Plunged into frightening mystery and a lurid murder trial, the lives of
Pemberley's owners and servants alike may never be the same . . .
