The Case of the Late Pig

A VINTAGE MURDER MYSTERY

Agatha Christie called her -a shining light-. Have you discovered Margery Allingham, the ''true queen'' of the classic murder mystery?

Private detective Albert Campion is summoned to the village of Kepesake to investigate a particularly distasteful death. The body turns out to be that of Pig Peters, freshly killed five months after his own funeral. Soon other corpses start to turn up, just as Peters''s body goes missing. It takes all Campion''s coolly incisive powers of detection to unravel the crime.

As urbane as Lord Wimsey-as ingenious as Poirot- Meet one of crime fiction-s Great Detectives, Mr Albert Campion.
