It started as a student exercise, the knife under the drape, the model's pose chalked in place. But before Agatha Troy—artist and instructor—returns to the class, the pose has been re-enacted in earnest: the model is dead, fixed for ever in one of the most dramatic poses Troy has ever seen. It's a difficult case for Chief Detective Inspector Alleyn. How can he believe that the woman he loves is a murderess?

Marsh moves into top gear. Susan Howatch The queen of the straight crime novel - long may she reign! Sunday Times I rate Ngaio Marsh's novels among the best in this genre, having read and re-read them many times over the years. Joan Hickson The finest writer in the English language of the pure, classical puzzle whodunit. Among the crime queens, Ngaio Marsh stands out as an Empress. The Sun
