Blurb:
'A MASTER STORYTELLER' DAILY MAIL

In this thrilling selection of stories, a young porter is found dead in a coal tub; Colbeck devises a trap to catch a thief; and a burnt train carriage holds a gruesome secret in a small coastal village. As Colbeck and his trusty aide Sergeant Victor Leeming begin to piece together clues and motives for each crime, it becomes clear the pair must stay a step ahead of the culprits to solve the cases. With a new suspect at every turn, can the duo unearth the real villains?

Including 'The End of the Line' and 'The Barber of Ravenglass', jealousy, vengeance and duplicity all collide in this supercharged anthology, proving once again, that Inspector Colbeck is the master of mysteries.

INSPECTOR COLBECK'S CASEBOOK by EDWARD MARSTON (2014) | ISBN: 0749016183 / 9780749016180 (UK PB) | Publisher: Allison & Busby (2015) (288 pages)

What fun, a collection of Detective Inspector
Colbeck's tales, here are the thirteen titles below;

Wetting the Coal
Rain, Steam and Speed
The Railway Church
A Family Affair
The Hat Trick
Helping Hand
Songs for a Swedish Nightingale
Suffer Little Children
The Missionary
On Guard
The Barber of Ravenglass
Puffing Billy
The End of the Line

Which story did I enjoy best? Oh, help I can't say, as the different stories covered different emotions for me. Call up a vision of Turner's Rain, Steam and Speed [see the illustration above] before reading that tale and you may understand why someone would want to steal this glorious work for the pleasure of viewing the genuine painting at demand.

Travelling books around and about, offering readers the chance to find books in comfy spots here and there, it's what we BookCrossers enjoy. So today I'm leaving four BookCrossing books and taking the three that are here to re-locate them elsewhere! Bookshelf location = the 'U' shaped continuation of the window shelf, to the right of the door on entering. (NB: All the TRAVELLING BookCrossing BOOKS have a BookCrossing labels in them — please leave unlabeled cooking books, as they are likely to belong to the Cafés kitchen.)
