Produktbeschreibung

A murder in plain sight brings Scotland Yard to investigate family secrets in a sleepy English town in this mystery from the beloved series. In the close-knit community of Enderby, Ned Bunn wasn't what you'd call popular. In fact, there were some fellow residents who wished him dead. But when Bunn is found dead on the doorstep of his own shop, the town is in shock. As Inspector Littlejohn of Scotland Yard investigates, he finds more than typical small-town animosity in the victim's past. Surprising revelations about Bunn and his family bring new leads-and new suspects-to this unexpectedly baffling case.

Autorenporträt

George Bellairs is the pseudonym under which Harold Blundell (1902-1982) wrote police procedural thrillers in rural British settings. He was born in Lancashire, England, and worked as a bank manager in Manchester. After retiring, Bellairs moved to the Isle of Man, where several of his novels are set, to be with friends and family. In 1941 Bellairs wrote his first mystery, Littlejohn on Leave, during spare moments at his air raid warden's post. The title introduced Thomas Littlejohn, the detective who appears in fifty-seven of his novels. Bellairs was also a regular contributor to the Manchester Guardian and worked as a freelance writer for newspapers both local and national.
