Crime comes to a country house: "Any Ngaio Marsh story is certain to be Grade A, and this one is no exception." — The New York Times This classic from the Golden Age of British mystery opens during a country-house party between the two world wars—servants bustling, gin flowing, the gentlemen in dinner jackets, the ladies all slink and smolder. Even more delicious: The host, Sir Hubert Handesley, has invented a new and especially exciting version of that beloved parlor entertainment, The Murder Game . . . "It's time to start comparing Christie to Marsh instead of the other way around." — New York Magazine "A peerless practitioner of the slightly surreal, English-village comedy-mystery." — Kirkus Reviews
