Mystery in the Channel by Freeman Wills Crofts
Mystery crime fiction written in the Golden Age of Murder
Not only is this a first-rate puzzler, but Crofts' outrage over the financial firm's betrayal of the public trust should resonate with today's readers. --Booklist STARED review
The Chichester is making a routine journey across the English Channel on a pleasant afternoon in June, when the steamer's crew notice something strange. A yacht, bobbing about in the water ahead of them, appears to have been abandoned, and there is a dark red stain on the deck. Two bodies later, with no sign of a gun, there certainly is a mystery in the channel.
Inspector French soon discovers a world of high-powered banking, luxury yachts and international double-dealing. British and French coastal towns, harbours--and of course the Channel itself--provide an alluring backdrop to this nautical adventure, along with a cast of shady characters.
