About This Book
From Sherlock Holmes and Lord Peter Wimsey to Hercule Poirot and Chief Inspector Wexford, the British have brought us some of mystery's most beloved characters, as well as many of the genre's fondest tropes. Although an American (Edgar Allan Poe) is credited with creating the modern mystery story, it was the British writers who followed who brought the genre to full flower and forever captured the imagination of the reading public.
In *Murder Most British*, Janet Hutchings brings together the finest writers and the best work of over one hundred years of the British mystery. From the classic writers of the Golden Age, such as A. Conan Doyle, G. K. Chesterton, Agatha Christie, and Dorothy L. Sayers, to the modern innovators, such as Michael Gilbert, Ruth Rendell, Simon Brett, Robert Barnard, and Julian Symons, the stories in this homage to the British mystery are sure to delight fans, old and new.
