"Nothing ever happens in Stratford, " insisted Superintendent Richard Jury of Scotland Yard. Unfortunately, he was wrong. Besides the stage murders commited nightly at the Royal Shakespeare Theatre, a real one had been performed not far from the Dirty Duck, a popular pub. The victim had been a member of an exclusive group too: Those rare homicidal maniacs compelled to leave an intentional clue - in this case, a fragment of Elizabethan verse.

Format:Paperback
Another Inspector Jury and Melrose Plant mystery set in Shakespearian Stratford. A select group of American tourists appear to the target of a madman, with brutal murder and kidnapping topping the list. Well structured, rounded and recognisable characters, and a style that flows makes this an easy and enjoyable read. Buy it, and curl up in a chair for a few hours.

I discovered this author by mistake & enjoyed this one (the 1st I read) so much that I tried to source them online. All used but this was in very good condition with no markings. A good bargain indeed!

Highly entertaining - not least because of the totally inappropriate use of Americanisms in the mouths of terribly English characters ! The construction is excellent with the strand of the little boy running through the other action beautifully.
