| Description: | Two roads lead to Saltey, an ancient hamlet on the Essex estuary: one is fast, frequented by mods and rockers on holiday weekends; the other is a dust track, almost hidden by centuries of misuse by black-hearted smugglers. But in this quintessential thriller, Albert Campion, Margery Allingham’s famed detective, discovers that few roads lead out. For Saltey holds a secret rich enough to trap all who enter the village, despite someone’s best endeavours to terrorise, murder and raise the very devil to keep that secret to themselves.
This is Margery Allingham’s final novel featuring her famous gentleman sleuth, overflowing with evil arch-villains and classic thuggery against the atmospheric backdrop of postwar England. The novel was completed posthumously by Philip Youngman Carter, Allingham’s husband. [Suggest a different description.] |
