John Farringdale, with his cousin Eric Foster, visits the famous archaeologist Tolgen Reisby. At Scarweather - Reisby's lonely house on the windswept northern coast of England - Eric is quickly attracted to Reisby's much younger wife, and matters soon take a dangerous turn. Fifteen years later, the final scene of the drama is enacted.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis unorthodox novel from 1934 is by a gifted crime writer who, wrote Dorothy L. Sayers, 'handles his characters like a \"real\" novelist and the English language like a \"real\" writer - merits which are still, unhappily, rarer than they should be in the ranks of the murder specialists.'\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Poisoned Pen Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47048135770352,"sku":"9781464207402","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781464207402_p0.jpg?v=1763682628","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781464207402","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
