About this product

Product Information

A unique anthology for crime aficionados - six 'perfect murder' stories written by the most accomplished crime writers of the 1930s, designed to fox real-life Scotland Yard Superintendent Cornish, who comments on whether or not these crimes could have genuinely been solved. Is the 'perfect murder' possible? Can that crime be committed with such consummate care, with such exacting skill, that it is unsolvable - even to the most astute investigator? In this unique collection, legendary crime writers Margery Allingham, Anthony Berkeley, Freeman Wills Crofts, Ronald Knox, Dorothy L. Sayers and Russell Thorndike each attempt to create the unsolvable murder, which Superintendent Cornish of the CID then attempts to unravel... This clever literary battle of wits from the archives of the Detection Club follows The Floating Admiral and Ask a Policeman back into print after more than 75 years, and shows some of the experts from the Golden Age of detective fiction at their most ingenious. For true crime aficionados, this new edition includes an essay by Agatha Christie, one of the inaugural members of the Detection Club. Unseen since 1929, her article discusses the infamous Croydon Poisonings, a real-life perfect murder, the solution to which remains a mystery to this day...

Book arrived ahead of time, well packaged, and is exactly as described. The vendor gets 5 stars for communication because a photo of the copyright page was included in original listing, which saved me the effort of asking which edition it is. Good purchase experience all round.

  • Could not put it down.

    I love Agatha Christie's books & had an almost complete collection when we moved house & some-how about three-quarters of my books got lost. Slowly I am replacing them & this is one I did not have before.I have to admit I did not read what the seller had written,I saw the name & bought it.I only realised other writers were involved when I received it.I was not disappointed as the other writers are also well liked authors. It turned out to be a bonus for me.The stories are enjoyable, with some unexpected twists to them (shouldn't be surprised by that). I think I will have to read them again.....just in case I missed something 1st time around.
