Critics Review

A hilarious and old-fashioned whodunit romp in the mold of P. G. Wodehouse and Agatha Christie, with just a tiny dollop of John Buchan thrown in for good measure. Highly entertaining

Few crime writers are so enchantingly gifted - Sunday Times

A new Simon Brett is an event for mystery fans

Simon Brett is one of British crime’s most assured craftsmen, with idiosyncratic characters proving winning creations… A feast of red herrings, broadly drawn characters, and gentle thrills and spills litter the witty plot. Crime writing just like in the good old days, and perfect entertainment - Guardian
