Another case for Lindy Grey; and a case truly worthy of his oddly erratic genius! Here he is again, picking his bewildered way through a welter of inexplicable ranging from the discovery of an Old Master that might or might not have been forged to the discovery of an elderly author who might or might not have been murdered. And the canvas seethes with other delightful and mysterious the unpredictable Lord and his ultra-glamourous ex-chorus-girl secretary; the twin art critics, Michael and Peter Ashbury; Inspector Rawlings, and Rosita Hearne, the artist's model … and Jezebel …
Lindy wanders throughout this gallery with his usual air of gentle surprise, an Alice at the tea-party of the Great Detectives of fiction - searching for a Mad Hatter who is anything but amiable …
So if you want the best of detective fiction, this is certainly it. This is the cream … THIS IS JEZEBEL.
