Guardian Crime Book of the Month WINNER OF THE CRIMEFEST LAST LAUGH AWARD _______________ 'A giddy spell of sheer delight' Daily Mail 'Ingenious ' Sunday Times Crime Club Brighton, 1957. Inspector Steine rather enjoys his life as a policeman by the sea. No criminals, no crime, no stress. So it's really rather annoying when an ambitious new constable shows up to work and starts investigating a series of burglaries. And it's even more annoying when, after Constable Twitten is despatched to the theatre for the night, he sits next to a vicious theatre critic who is promptly shot dead part way through the opening night of a new play. It seems Brighton may be in need of a police force after all... A sparkling historical mystery set in sunny Sussex by the sea, perfect for fans of Richard Osman, Robert Thorogood and Elly Griffiths. _______________ 'Entertaining' Observer 'Will make you laugh out loud' Sunday Times 'Truss can work miracles' Telegraph
