The Z Murders

This was pleasantly unexpected Why is it some writers are famous after their heyday and others aren't? Farjeon was celebrated in the late “Golden Age”, praised by other mystery novelists of the day, and sold well. Now he's all but forgotten. And until this British Crime Library edition, I was unaware of his existence. This is entertaining, psychologically astute, and very well-structured. Add in a likeable and engaging protagonist and you have a fun and thoroughly enjoyable mystery. Highly recommended. More Farjeon in my future.
