Comments & Further Information

This is a trade paperback edition published by Endeavour originally in 2016.  This is a later undated printing.  The title was first published in 1945 by John Gifford.  The covers are showing signs of wear to the extremities:  the laminate is lifting at the edges of the book.  Page edges have some foxing.

An Inspector Littlejohn novel.

SYNOPSIS:  “The Mayor of the popular resort of Westcombe, Sir Gideon Ware is no stranger to making enemies.  What was once a quaint little harbour is now miles of level, concrete promenade and acres of pleasure-beach.  Sir Gideon has put Westcombe on the map through bribes, intimidation and threats.

When Ware drops dead in the middle of his annual lunch, no-one is surprised to hear that murder is suspected.  But with so many enemies surrounding Ware, Inspector Littlejohn has his work cut out sifting through Ware’s past to find the likely killer.”
