About this Item

Atmospheric colour illustrations by James Boswell. Introduction by A.S. Byatt, who rates Allingham as THE great crime writer of the day. Her superb introduction is worth the price of the book! From the publisher's blurb: "With its psychological insight, ingenious plot and overarching mood of suspense, this superb thriller sees Allingham?s beloved gentleman detective, Albert Campion, trapped within a living nightmare. Waking in a dark and empty hospital ward, Campion is beset by two appalling realisations: he has lost all memory of his own identity and his life so far; and he alone must avert an enormous, impending disaster whose nebulous terrors fill him with a sense of urgency. Worse still, low voices coming from just outside his room reveal the recent murder of a policeman, and the certain hanging of the patient responsible for this most heinous of crimes ". This is a new unread copy in its undamaged slipcase. Seller Inventory # ABE-1587032800273
