- Synopsis
- An ex–Scotland Yard inspector is pulled out of retirement to investigate a murder and a family&’s fiery legacy in this classic British mystery. Sir John Appleby has left Scotland Yard behind to retire to the country—but there&’s no escaping crime. In the middle of a hot summer night, he is woken up by a phone call. Inspector Hyland of the Sherris Magna police is in dire need of assistance after a local baronet has been murdered . . . Of course, it&’s far more complex than that. Authorities believe Sir Oliver Dromio was hit over the head with a revolver then burned in his study&’s fireplace. There&’s also the matter of Oliver&’s brothers. The late baronet was a triplet who lost his two brothers in a fire forty years ago. Was Oliver&’s murder an act of retribution? Appleby makes his way to Sherris Hall where he gets caught up in a family&’s melodrama in a household teeming with legend and tragedy. Sifting through family secrets in squabbles, Appleby must smoke out a killer before they strike again . . .Praise for Michael Innes and Inspector Appleby &“The author&’s ingenuity and wit are seemingly endless.&” —The Daily Telegraph &“Altogether a brilliant piece of work.&” —Birmingham Post &“Innes is in a class by himself when it comes to detective fiction.&” —The Times Literary Supplement
