Footsteps in the Dark by Georgette Heyer
The Priory may be ramshackled in appearance, but Peter, Margaret and Celia, who have inherited it from their uncle, love it for its rambling charm. But there's more to this house than is at first apparent: for years hardly a single person has set foot in the place, and even their uncle chose to live in a different house.
We had better start ranking Heyer alongside such incomparable whodunit authors as Christie, Marsh, Yet and Allingham * San Francisco Chronicle *
Rarely have we seen humour and mystery so perfectly blended * New York Times *
Sharp, clear and witty * The New Yorker *
The wittiest of detective writers * Daily Mail *
