Margery Allingham: Look to the Lady, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

**A classic of Golden Age detective fiction, Look to the Lady by Margery Allingham is a brilliant blend of traditional whodunit, suspenseful intrigue, and British wit.**At the heart of the mystery is the theft of a legendary chalice-an ancient relic steeped in history, symbolism, and danger. When murder follows, the case draws in Albert Campion, Allingham's deceptively light-hearted yet razor-sharp detective, whose keen intelligence uncovers layers of deception beneath polite society. What appears at first to be a straightforward crime soon becomes a complex puzzle of motives, secrets, and deadly ambition.

Renowned for its fair-play mystery construction, Look to the Lady offers readers all the clues needed to solve the case-if they are observant enough. Allingham combines classic British mystery storytelling with vivid characterization, psychological insight, and an atmospheric sense of place, creating a novel that is both intellectually satisfying and deeply entertaining. A standout entry in the Albert Campion mystery series, this novel will delight fans of Golden Age detective fiction, traditional whodunits, and vintage crime novels. Its elegance, ingenuity, and sharply drawn cast make it an ideal choice for libraries, mystery book clubs, and readers who value clever plotting over sensationalism.
