The unhappy guests fi nd themselves under the scrutiny of Scotland Yard's cool-headed Inspector Harding, who has solved tough cases beforebut this time, the talented young inspector discovers much more than he's bargained for. PRAISE FOR GEORGETTE HEYER: Miss Heyer has the delightful talent of blending humor with mystery. Boston Evening Transcript Heyer is an author to readthis means you New York Herald Tribune Miss Heyer's characters and dialogue are an abiding delight to me... I have seldom met people to whom I have taken so violent a fancy from the word 'Go.' Dorothy L. Sayers Synopsis:The stabbing of irascible General Sir Arthur Billington-Smith fails to stir up grief in anyone, least of all his family, which is no wonder considering the way he had treated them all during the fateful weekend. Inspector Harding picks his way through a mass of familial discontent to find the culprit — and much more besides. Synopsis:A new Heyer mystery, "The Unfinished Clue" is reminiscent of Agatha Christie, in which every guest is a suspect, and none has an alibi.
