Twice Round the Clock by Billie Houston
Rewinding twelve hours, the events of the afternoon and evening unfold, revealing a multitude of clues and motives from a closed cast of suspects until the narrative reaches 4am again then races on to its riveting conclusion at 4pm as the reader is led twice round the clock.
Billie Houston (1906-1972) was the pen name of Glasgow-born writer and entertainer Sarah McMahon Gribbin. A big name in the 1920s, making up half of the Scottish dance act: the Houston Sisters, she was a big fan of crime novels and took a shot at writing one herself, purportedly in spare moments in the dressing rooms and backstage areas of her shows.
