Product Description
Book Description
The letter was addressed simply to ‘The Toff, London W1.’ Inside it was nothing but a photograph of a lovely but unidentified woman.
The letter was addressed simply to ‘The Toff, London W1.’ Inside it was nothing but a photograph of a lovely but unidentified woman.
The lady herself had arrived at a society ball the previous night, looking deadly pale in black satin and mink. She said she had lost her memory and nobody knew who she was or where she came from.
Within days, murder and intrigue had followed her. The Hon. Richard Rollison was used to taking villains and murderers in his stride but this time he had to match his wits with a lady as cunning as she was beautiful. Even more, his own heart was in danger of clouding the issue, putting yet more lives in jeopardy.
In The Toff, John Creasey has created a true old-fashioned hero who champions ladies, rights wrongs and grits his teeth to overcome impossible odds. Will he win though? Yes of course he will. The fun is in the telling.
From the Publisher
In all John Creasey’s books, the hero is the guy in the white hat, even if he bends the rules, and the villain gets what’s coming to him or her. Even in the hectic 21st century (especially in the hectic 21st century!) we sometimes need to know that the good guy always wins…
Seven years after John Creasey’s death in 1973, his books were out of print but now, starting with the Toff series, Creasey is back to delight both old and new readers with his skilful storytelling of timeless heroes and villains.
Four Toff books from the 1930s and 1940s are the first John Creasey re-issues from Tethered Camel Publishing, with one new Toff book per month from then on. The books are fascinating documents of social history, dancing between English high society and the bars and fight clubs of the East End of London. They are also ripping yarns.
In The Toff, John Creasey created a true old-fashioned hero who champions ladies, rights wrongs and grits his teeth to overcome impossible odds. Will he win, though? Of course he will. This is nostalgia at its best….the fun is in the telling.
