Mystery crime fiction written in the Golden Age of Murder'[T]he entire book is filled with countryhousemystery wonders: the closedcircle puzzle, the dyingmessage clue, and the sociopathic guest who invades the weekend house party.' BooklistThe English country house is an iconic setting for some of the greatest British crime fiction. This new collection gathers together stories written over a span of about 65 years, during which British society, and life in country houses, was transformed out of all recognition. It includes fascinating and unfamiliar twists on the classic 'closed circle' plot, in which the assorted guests at a country house party become suspects when a crime is committed. In the more sinister tales featured here, a gloomy mansion set in lonely grounds offers an eerie backdrop for dark deeds.Many distinguished writers are represented in this collection, including such great names of the genre as Anthony Berkeley, Nicholas Blake and G.K. Chesterton. Martin Edwards has also unearthed hidden gems and forgotten masterpieces: among them are a fine sendup of the country house murder; a suspenseful tale by the unaccountably neglected Ethel Lina White; and a story by the littleknown Scottish writer J.J. Bell.
