The Beckoning Lady by Margery Allingham

3.0

Minnie and Tonker Cassands are getting ready for their annual summer party at Minnie's home, The Beckoning Lady. Unfortunately, Minnie is in serious trouble with the Department of Inland Revenue and the dead man discovered in a ditch near her house is a tax inspector. It turns out that there are a number of people who wanted him dead and Albert Campion and DCI Charles Luke have to step in to figure out what's going on. An entertaining read from a master from the Golden Age of Mystery.
