Description

Wobble to Death: The First Sergeant Cribb Mystery by Peter Lovesey In 1879, Victorian London's six-day endurance walking race is all the rage. On a Monday morning in November, one of the contestants is found dead, with tetanus from a blister initially suspected. However, as the competition continues, a second death occurs, and this time it's clear that murder has taken place. Scotland Yard's Sergeant Cribb is called in to investigate, along with Constable Thackeray. As they delve into the case, they uncover something foul at play. This reissue of Peter Lovesey's first acclaimed book marks the beginning of his career nearly 50 years ago. A gripping mystery set against the backdrop of a bizarre and intriguing event, Wobble to Death is a compelling read for fans of historical crime fiction.
