This title is part of our3 for 2 offeron British Library Fiction.

At 8 oclock in the evening on the 8th November, there was a terrific explosion in Green Lane, Evingden. The offices of Excelsior Joinery Company are no more; the 3 directors are killed and the peace of a quiet town in Surrey lies in ruins. When the supposed cause of ignited gas leak is dismissed and the presence of dynamite revealed, Superintendent Littlejohn of Scotland Yard is summoned to the scene. But beneath the sleepy veneer of Evingden lies a hotbed of deep-seated grievances.

Confounding Littlejohns investigation is an impressive cast of suspicious persons, each concealing their own axe to grind. Bellairs novel of small-town grudges with calamitous consequences revels in the abundant possible solutions to the central crime as a masterpiece of misdirection.

Part of the Crime Classics series.
