Bodies from the Library 4 Lost Tales of Mystery and Suspense from the Golden Age of Detection

'In this trip down memory lane, familiar names from the golden age, such as Ngaio Marsh, Gladys Mitchell and Edmund Crispin, share the honours with lesser lights claiming their overdue recognition as gifted contributors to classic crime. The centrepiece is a novella by Christianna Brand who, after years of neglect, is now enjoying a revival. Other snappier tales of criminal intent, gathered for the first time in book form, testify to Tony Medawar's skill as an excavator of lost treasures of crime fiction. This, the fourth in the series of Bodies From The Library, is the best yet.'-Daily Mail

'An annual treat - almost like the summer version of a Christie for Christmas.'-Kate Jackson, author of The Pocket Detective and Cross Examining Crime

'One of the best mixed anthologies I've come across ... If you're already a vintage crime fan, then this is one to grab; and if you're new to the genre, then you'll find this a very enjoyable way to introduce yourself to some of the greats. Highly recommended!'-FictionFanBlog
