A collection of vintage mysteries that combine the pleasures of both holidays and a good mystery for getting away from it all. 14 stories range across the golden age of British crime fiction, with exotic locations and both stellar authors from the period and some little known and rarely available gems. Holidays offer us the luxury of getting away from it all. So, in a different way, do detective stories. This collection of vintage mystery stories combines both those pleasures. From a golf course at the English seaside to a pension in Paris, and from a Swiss mountain resort to the cliffs of Normandy, this new selection shows the enjoyable and unexpected ways in which crime writers have used summer holidays as a theme.
