Marjorie Louise Ellingham is an English writer, belonging to the "golden age of English literature", recognized as the "queen of detective fiction" alongside Agatha Christie, Dorothy Sayers, and Ngaio Marsh. Ellingham is best known for her books featuring the gentleman...
detective Albert Campion. This volume includes the first three novels of her main series. When George Abbershaw is invited for a weekend at Black Dudley, he sees it as an opportunity to propose to Meggie Oliphant. But harmless entertainment for the guests turns into a deadly game, and the search for the criminal now occupies George more than the impending engagement. Val Girt barely escaped becoming a victim of kidnappers. He has no idea how great the danger looming over him is – unlike the mysterious Mr. Campion, the amateur detective, who informs him of the news: a gang of daring thieves is hunting for an ancient cup entrusted to Val's family for safekeeping. In the hands of Judge Crowdy Lobbecke are pieces of evidence revealing the identity of the criminal genius. Four assassination attempts force the judge to seek help from Albert Campion. The detective decides to hide Lobbecke in Mystery Mile, but this estate turns into a trap.
