Hangman's Holiday [antikvár]

Borítói kopottasak.
Amusing and absolutely appalling things happen on the way to the gallows when murder meets Lord Peter Wimsey and the delightful working-class sleuth Montague Egg. This sumptuous feast of criminal doings and undoings includes a vintage double identity and a horrid incident of feline assassination that will tease the minds of cat-lovers everywhere. Not to be missed are "The Incredible Elopement of Peter Wimsey" (with a lovely American woman-turned-zombie) and eight more puzzlers penned in inimitable style by the mistress of murder. Includes: The image in the mirror -- The incredible elopement of Lord Peter Wimsey -- The queen's square -- The necklace of pearls -- The poisoned dow '08 -- Sleuths on the scent -- Murder in the morning -- One too many -- Murder at Pentecost -- Maher-Shalal-Hashbaz -- The man who knew how -- The fountain plays.
