Inspector French: The Affair at Little Wokeham, Paperback / softback Book

Inspector French: The Affair at Little Wokeham Paperback / softback

Part of the Inspector French series

Paperback / softback

Description

A classic crime novel by Freeman Wills Crofts, ‘The King of Detective Story Writers’, featuring Inspector French, coming soon to television. Money – or lack of it – can be, to certain members of society, a powerful motive for murder.

Two sisters and a brother who were to share equally in their uncle's fortune had, each in their own way, urgent reasons for wanting money.

But it was a comparative outsider – who also stood to benefit from the estate through his wife's inheritance – who contemplates the murder of their uncle.

In great financial difficulty, his desperation urges him on to plan the crime with infinite care.

An unexpected chance leads to an accomplice who provides a sound alibi, upon whose silence he can rely. As The Affair at Little Wokeham unfolds, Chief Inspector French enters upon the scene and, through his painstaking investigation, the mystery is unravelled.
