Working with the Margery Allingham Society, he completed the Albert Campion novel left unfinished, Mr Campion's Farewell, and has written further continuation novels in the series.

Rezensionen
'As gripping and well-researched as any of the thrillers he discusses, Mike Ripley's book also provides a fascinating social history of post-war Britain. A reminder of the relevance of this unfairly maligned genre. Check the room for bugs, settle down, and dive in.'
Ian Rankin

'Witty and authoritative'
Andrew Taylor, SPECTATOR

'A blissfully enjoyable study of the golden age of the British thriller'
SUNDAY TELEGRAPH

'Highly entertaining ... this informative book should send readers back to the thrillers of yesteryear'
THE TIMES

'Ripley writes with breezy, infectious enthusiasm... Above all, though, Ripley conveys something of why these books are exciting.' WASHINGTON POST
