About this title

Synopsis

The Cambridge Eight rowing team is only days away from the highly anticipated boat race.

In an effort to ease their minds, detective fiction becomes a welcome distraction for the team. But when one of the team members is found dead in a perplexing and suspicious manner, the distraction turns into a full-blown investigation.

Was it suicide or murder, and which member of the team had a motive? And if murder -

is anyone else due to die?

Scotland Yard detective Angus MacNair must unravel the mystery in this classic locked-room whodunit, originally published in 1933.

Robert Egerton Swartwout (1905-1951) was a poet, humourist and, more importantly, the first American to cox the Cambridge University Boat Club to victory in 1930. He is also the author of Rhymes of the River and Other Verses (W Heffer and Sons, Limited. Cambridge 1927).
