Description
Ted Lyte's plan for his first robbery goes awry when he stumbles upon a locked room containing seven dead bodies in an isolated coastal house. Detective Inspector Kendall takes on the case, aided by Thomas Hazeldean, a yachtsman who helps him investigate the house's absent owners. Their search for answers leads them across the Channel to Boulogne, where they uncover more than one motive for staying and investigating further. This atmospheric crime novel, first published in 1939, is a gripping tale of murder and mystery. With its blend of amateur detective work and international intrigue, Seven Dead is a compelling read for fans of classic crime fiction.
