The Beckoning Lady // The Estate of the Beckoning Lady — Margery Allingham

TWO MURDERS TOO MANY
Little Doom, the pesky tax-collector, meets his big doom violently -- bashed like a mosquito in an open meadow. Soon after, old Uncle William expires peacefully in his room at The Beckoning Lady. Albert Campion has a hunch that the two deaths are related, and that the beloved eccentric's demise wasn't quite as natural as everyone supposed. So it's off to Suffolk to attend the wildest weekend party of the decade -- and to expose a murderer before he or she beckons another poor unfortunate soul toward an untimely end!

MYSTERY AT ITS BRITISH BEST
Equally at home in the underworld and among the upper crust, super-sleuth Albert Campion rarely misses a clue or fails to find a motive. Behind his horn-rimmed glasses and mild-mannered facade is a brilliant mind that can penetrate to the villainous heart of the most heinous crime.
