Description
âWins my Oscar for the craftiest murder method cooked up (literally) this monthâ from the author of the classic mystery Dead Men Donât Ski (Sunday Telegraph).
Rich, aristocratic, and at the heart of swinging London, âPudgeâ Coombe-Peters has everything except a decent nickname. And in fact, he has two special attributes: He owns the narrationâthe drawling, deliciously snobbish, all-but-impossibly irritating narrationâof Falling Star, and he has a chum named Henry Tibbett, who comes in just awfully handy when people start dying on the set of the film that Pudge is producing.
Tibbett is especially welcome because, by the second death, itâs clear that weâre not dealing merely with murder but with Impossible Crime, the kind of fiendishly clever puzzle that is killingly hard to write and even more difficult to solve. The twisty plot and gorgeously retro setting on their own would make for a splendid read, but adding Pudge to the mix puts it over the top.
