A review by pgchuis
Tenant for Death by Cyril Hare

4.0

A police procedural, featuring Inspector Mallett, concerning the murder of a ruined financier. I liked Mallett and enjoyed the story, although it became a little tiresome by the end. I am not sure why the chapter with Fanshawe and his daughter was included. The tone was light with touches of humour.

Sadly the interesting and important protagonists were all male; the female characters consisted of secretaries, the dead man's mistress and a gullible girlfriend.
