Recenzii
There is a special charm about vintage fiction in which crimes are solved not by forensics, in the laboratory, but by intuition and deduction. The latest collection in the Vintage Murders series transports us from the English seaside to Corfu and Alsace and to that famously foreign country, the past, in the company of Simon Brett, Ellis Peters, Michael Innes and Arthur Conan Doyle - such great storytellers, it's criminal.
Praise for the Vintage Murder series
An excellent collection of short stories by ten top-class writers
An impressive tome by some great names ... there isn't actually a bum note in the entire collection, not a single one you could skip through and not miss it - which is quite some feat. To paraphrase Nick Cook's famous Crimewatch sign off, just don't have nightmares after reading it
With Cecily Gayford in charge, we are on safe ground
Looking forward to Christmas? [The Vintage Murder series] is a fine way to start it. It's a cracker
Perfect for a quick fix of golden-age crime. This collection of short winter chills is well worth reading by candlelight before turning in on Christmas Eve
Has everything you might want ... take this little book to the beach [and] relax in the sun while reading of battered corpses
Short, clever and puzzling murder tales test the brains of the most avid crime reader ... delectable
