i am so glad this writer of my parents/grandparents generation is being published again. I am SO enjoying reading her This 1is only my third Marshe, but I'm finding her books to be better written and more contemporary than the far-better-known Agatha Chrisie.

Book arrived in the post today. Thank you!
This one wasn't too bad, although it took me a while to get into it. As with any of Marsh's mysteries, there's a lot of plot points and a lot of clues to look for and keep track of. Alleyn's an interesting character - sort of an idiosyncratic, well-read sort in the vein of Sherlock Holmes and Hercule Poirot.

Got the book off into the mail today - it's on its way to a new reader up in Canada.
Thank you for sending this book, 4thEstate! I'm looking forward to reading another Inspector Alleyn mystery.
This book is the second in the Inspector Roderick Alleyn mystery series and like the first, it features Alleyn’s friend Nigel Bathgate. Inspector Fox is introduced but has a very minor role. The novel features a cleverly constructed plot set in the theatrical world, but the character of Alleyn seems far from the one played by Patrick Malahide in the television series that I loved so much. Still, it was a very enjoyable story and I look forward to seeing how Alleyn’s character develops as the series proceeds.
I passed this book along to another BookCrosser at a book-club meeting today.
