About this Item

Vintage Penguin First Edition. #1008. Red Is for Killing is a brisk, tightly plotted Penguin mystery from George Bagby, featuring his recurring sleuth, Inspector Schmidt. When a seemingly ordinary New York apartment becomes the scene of a violent death, Schmidt finds himself navigating a tangle of neighbours, half-truths and small domestic details that refuse to line up. Bagby keeps the tone light but the investigation sharp, letting Schmidtâ s dry humour and methodical instincts guide the story as the colour â redâ becomes a recurring clue pointing toward motive, opportunity and a killer hiding in plain sight. Itâ s a neat, fast-moving urban whodunit with a touch of sardonic charm.
