Description
Maggie Byrnes, heroine of Murder in the Telephone Exchange, returns in this 1949 novel. Now married with a young son, she finds herself at the centre of a new mystery when her landlord is shot. Suspicion falls on those who stand to gain from his death, and Maggie must use her sleuthing skills to uncover the truth. As she delves deeper into the case, Maggie's attention turns to the infant heir who stands to inherit the deceased man's fortune. With her instincts on high alert, she sets out to unravel a complex web of motives and alliances. This reissued edition includes an introduction by crime fiction historian Lucy Sussex, as well as a revealing interview with author June Wright conducted in 1996.
