Description
A rare collection of crime and suspense stories from the Golden Age of Detective Fiction is now available in book form. This anthology brings together three never-before-published mysteries by Edmund Crispin, Ngaio Marsh and Leo Bruce, alongside two pieces written for radio and a complete short novel by Christianna Brand. Among these tales are works that have long been out of print, including stories from newspapers, magazines and anthologies. The collection also features an unpublished story by Ethel Lina White, which inspired Alfred Hitchcock's film The Lady Vanishes. A diverse mix of stories by popular classic crime writers makes this anthology a valuable addition to any reader's library. The book includes indispensable biographies of the featured authors, providing insight into their lives and works. This fourth volume in the Bodies from the Library series sheds new light on the forgotten, lost and unknown stories of some of the world's most beloved crime writers.
