Meld je aan bij LibraryThing om erachter te komen of je dit boek goed zult vinden. Op dit moment geen Discussie gesprekken over dit boek. Characters very cleverly and entertainingly drawn, to the point where the mystery plot loses some urgency, but so what? A rich slice of English life in the Golden Age of crime fiction. Wonderful, highly recommended minor crime novel with an excellent twist. BUT (and it's a big but) with one of the worst reissue covers of all time. Quite frankly the whole twist is given away by the front cover design of the seventies version of the book. I knew exactly what was coming because of the cover. So be careful if you ever see this one in a shop - look for the spine, grab it, take it to the counter with your eyes firmly closed and then find some brown paper for a loved one to disguise the cover with. Then once you've read it and enjoyed it (far more than I did because you won't see the twist galloping over the horizon) then remove said brown paper and boggle at the stupidity of the design staff at Arrow books circa 1974. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
