Vintage Murder



Vintage Murder is the 5th of 32 Inspector Roderick Alleyn mystery novels by Ngaio Marsh. I pick these up whenever I see them used, which isn't often. I may have to start looking at the new book stores.

from the back of the book:
The leading lady of a theater company touring New Zealand was stunningly beautiful. No one -including her lover- understood why she married the company's pudgy producer.

On a holiday down under, Inspector Roderick Alleyn must uncork this mystery and uncover a devious killer...
