Summary

The collected short stories of the great Victor Canning, originally written and published in the 1950s and 1960s—full of humor, charm, and in true fashion of classic crime writing.

Canning’s heartwarming vignettes and clever mysteries take us from a Welsh valley to a far-off island and across the French countryside—introducing unforgettable characters and stories along the way.

Critic reviews

"His gift of story-telling is obviously innate. Rarely does one come on so satisfying an amalgam of plot, characterisation and good writing." (Punch)

"Quite delightful...with an atmosphere of quiet contentment and humour that cannot fail to charm." (Daily Telegraph)

"A swift-moving novel, joyous, happy and incurably optimistic." (Evening Standard)
