Beschreibung

"When entertainer Jimmy Sutane falls victim to a string of malicious practical jokes, there's only one man who can get to the bottom of the apparent vendetta against the music hall darling -- gentleman sleuth Albert Campion. Soon, however, the backstage pranks escalate, and an aging starlet is killed. Under pressure to uncover the culprit and plagued by his growing feelings for Sutane's wife, Campion finds himself uncomfortably embroiled in an investigation which tests his ingenuity -- and integrity -- to the limit"--

Über den Autor

Margery Allingham (1904-1966) was an English novelist and one of the leading figures of the Golden Age of detective fiction. Best known for creating the gentleman sleuth Albert Campion, Allingham brought wit, psychological insight, and social nuance to the traditional mystery [...] Campion novels-beginning with The Crime at Black Dudley and developing through works such as Tiger in the Smoke-blend intricate plotting with sharply observed portraits of British society between the wars and beyond. As the series progressed, Campion evolved from a seemingly lighthearted adventurer into a more complex and reflective figure, mirroring the deepening tone of Allingham's [...] grouped with contemporaries such as Agatha Christie and Dorothy L. Sayers, Allingham distinguished herself through atmospheric writing and an interest in character as much as puzzle. Her work remains central to twentieth-century British crime literature and continues to attract devoted readers of classic detective fiction.
