These thirty stories, selected and introduced by Michael Gilbert, are concerned with murder, criminal acts and the law and can be dipped into in any order. ‘The Rivals’ contains a real puzzle; ‘Name of Smith’ features a judge’s summing-up and a murder; ‘The Story of Hermione’ has a criminal who escapes altogether.
