The British Library
A republished mystery with a travel-themed twist, from the golden age of British crime-writing. Suspicion and murder stalk the sunny Côte d'Azur when Nigel Derry joins his unconventional Aunt Gwenny for an ill-fated holiday in the south of France at the Villa Paradou. Seeking relaxation after a country house party at her English home was marred by an unruly guest list and even a knife fight, Gwenny summons her nephew to enjoy time away. When the body of Gwenny Marrable is discovered the holiday turns to tragedy. Can Inspector Blampignon of the Sûreté Nationale unravel the trail, even when the evidence points to the crime having occurred hundreds of miles away in the north of France? A thrilling mystery originally published in 1956 from acclaimed British mystery writer John Bude, the pen-name of Ernest Elmore (1901–1957).
