THE PORT OF LONDON MURDERS
Εκδότης British Library , ISBN 9780712353618
When the San Angelo drifts into port in the Thames Estuary,
telephones begin to ring across the capital and an intricate series of
events is set in motion. Beset by dreadful storms in the Bay of
Biscay, the ship, along with the 'mixed cargo' it carries, is late.
Unaware of the machinations of avaricious importers, wayward
captains and unscrupulous traders, Harry Reed and June Harvey are
thrust together by a riverside accident, before being swept into the
current of a dark plot developing on the dockside.
Published in 1938, Josephine Bell's unique and atmospheric writing
shines in a mystery weaving together blackmail, bootleg lingerie
and, of course, murder.
