Dancers in Mourning by Margery Allingham
4.0
One of the Albert Campion series published in 1937.
Chloe Pye is a faded revue star making a come back when she dies under suspicious circs at Jimmy Sutane’s house “white walls” in the country. Jimmy is a dancing star with an entourage of employees all present at the time of her death.
Campion a clever yet diffident chap reluctantly agrees to assist with the help of former burgler turned manservant Magersfontein Lugg and “uncle william”.
You think you know how it will end and then bam you dont. Allingham tricks you right up to the end.
