Publisher's Synopsis
"Williams maintains suspense while keeping the masks of comedy and tragedy spinning like tops." SUNDAY TIMES David William's whodunits have a huge and devoted following. His favourite gold-digging spouses get delicious outings, as do the perpetrators of two fascinating insurance scams and the members who so nearly bring disgrace on a London gentleman's club. The tricking, on the Riviera, of an innocent Wimbledon spinster, the assassination of an ex-president and the hilarious arrangements for the demise of an unfavourite rich relative by a scrumptious Welsh harpy, are glorious examples of the genre. All these and other gems in this fifteen strong collection make for a compulsive and entirely satisfying virtuoso entertainment.
