The White Priory Murders
Penguin Main Series 811. 1st Edition, published 1951.
James Bennett has been invited to stay at White Priory for Christmas among the retinue of the glamorous Hollywood actress Marcia Tait. Her producer, her lover, the playwright for her next hit and her agent are all here, soon to become so many suspects when Tait is found murdered on a cold December morning in the lakeside pavilion. Only the footprints of her discoverer disturb the snow which fell overnight – and which stopped just shortly after Marcia was last seen alive. How did the murderer get in and out of the pavilion without leaving a trace?
Condition grading: Good. Pen signature and date to title page. Wear to ends of tanned and lightly creased spine. Binding tight. The photographs form part of the description.
