The summer holidays are a chance to escape from it all, to shrug off the troubles and cares of everyday life, and lounge on warm sands or sip a cool drink in the shade of a city square. But, as the characters in this murderously good collection of classic crime stories discover to their cost ... sometimes it's not that easy to escape your fate.
An impossible murder on a Cornish beach. A honeymoon in the Italian lakes that becomes a desperate search for the truth. An African safari that ends with the tables being turned. Even in a heatwave, these tales of murder and malice will chill you like a shadow sliding across the sun.
Includes writing from various well-loved authors including Dorothy L Sayers, Arthur Conan Doyle, Ngaio Marsh, Anthony Berkeley, Ruth Rendell, John Dickson Carr, Simon Brett, and more...
