All too soon the evening ended and Calladine thought he’d seen the last of her. But a few hours later she’s on his doorstep. Her name is Joan Carew and she needs his help. Joan quickly admits to him that she had just come form trying to steal an expensive pearl necklace. She’d made her way into the suit of her intended mark at the Semiramis Hotel, but there was someone already there. Thieves who grab her. The last thing she remembers is struggling with them as they try to bind her. A few hours later she came to alone in the room except for the dead body of the woman who had owned the pearls. Calladine agrees to help her immediately. This lovely woman can’t be a murderer . . . can she? Enter Inspector Hanaud, one of France’s finest detective. If anyone can get to the bottom of this case he can.

The mysteries in this collection reveal the dark side to theatre and performing arts: a world of backstage dealings, where unscrupulous actors risk everything to land a starring role, costumed figures lead to mistaken identities, and on-stage deaths begin to look a little too convincing. . . This expertly curated thespian anthology features fourteen stories from giants of the classic crime genre such as Dorothy L. Sayers, Julian Symons and Ngaio Marsh, as well as firm favourites from the British Library Crime Classics series: Anthony Wynne, Christianna Brand, Bernard J. Farmer and many more. Mysteries abound when a player's fate hangs on a single performance, and opening night may very well be their last.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKH.C. Bailey's detective Reggie Fortune was one of the most popular protagonists of the Golden Age of detective fiction. Fortune appeared in nine novels yet it was in a series of 84 short stories that were published from 1920 to 1940 where he truly shone, combining elements of several popular archetypes--the eccentric logician, the forensic investigator, the hard-boiled interrogator, the psychological profiler, the defender of justice. This critical study examines the Fortune stories in the context of other popular detective fiction of the era. Bailey's classics are distinguished by well-clued puzzles, brilliant sleuthing, vivid description and social critique, with Fortune evoking images of Don Quixote and the Arthurian Knights in his pursuit of truth and justice in an uncaring world.
