The Wooden Witness: A cozy 1930s English seaside murder mystery - Paperback
by Hugh Morrison (Author)
Summer 1931: after finding the battered corpse of a spiritualist medium at an archaeological site on the Suffolk coast, the Reverend Lucian Shaw is thrust into a dark and deadly mystery involving ancient texts and modern technology.
Was the medium a victim of the evil forces he claimed to have harnessed for his own use, or is there a rational explanation for his demise? Discovering a trail of blackmail and intimidation leading from the foothills of the Himalayas to an English seaside town, Reverend Shaw must battle his own inner demons and struggle with the deepest questions of faith before he is able to unmask the killer. Readers who love Golden Age detective fiction by writers such as Agatha Christie and Dorothy L. Sayers will enjoy this affectionate tribute to the genre. The Reverend Shaw books in order are A Third Class Murder, The King is Dead, The Wooden Witness, Death on the Night Train, Murder in Act Three and Murder at Evensong. The books are self-contained and do not need to be read in order.Made with care and unconditionally loved by our customers, this signature bestseller exceeds all expectations.
