David William's whodunits have a huge and devoted following, recruited through the ingenuity of his plotting and the wit, style and sheer elegance of his writing. His brilliant short stories, never collected in one volume before, offer in addition the rich classical virtue of a superbly contrived twist in every tale. His favourite gold-digging spouses get delicious outings, as do the perpetrators of two fascinating insurance scarns and the members who so nearly bring disgrace on a London's gentleman's club. The tricking, on the Riviera, of an innocent Wimbledon spinster, the assassination of an ex-president and the hilarious arrangements for the demise of an unfavourite rich relative by a scrumptious Welsh harpy, are glorious examples of the genre. All these and other gems in this fifteen strong collection make for a compulsive and entirely satisfying virtuoso entertainment. literature and fiction,mystery,mystery thriller and suspense,short stories Mystery, Hale Limited, Robert<
