The Singing Sands by Josephine Tey
4.0
Golden age murder mystery with a difference.
I thoroughly enjoyed this well written novel, even though the plot twists were occasionally, um, out there. Terrific, middle class, middle England, detective story with a little unkind unionist stereotyping thrown in for good measure (despite the author being from Inverness).
This was Tey’s last novel, and (therefore) the last starring Alan Grant, but I’d love to read the earlier ones now.
