Smallbone Deceased : A London Mystery, Paperback / softback Book

Smallbone Deceased : A London Mystery Paperback / softback

Part of the British Library Crime Classics series

Paperback / softback

Description

Horniman, Birley and Craine is a highly respected legal firm with clients reaching to the highest in the land.

When a deed box in the office is opened to reveal a corpse, the threat of scandal promises to wreak havoc on the firm's reputation - especially as the murder looks like an inside job.

The partners and staff of the firm keep a watchful and suspicious eye on their colleagues, as Inspector Hazlerigg sets out to solve the mystery of who Mr Smallbone was - and why he had to die. Written with style, pace and wit, this is a masterpiece by one of the finest writers of traditional British crime novels since the Second World War.
