Tim Heald, ed. A Classic English Crime (1990)
Tim Heald, ed. A Classic English Crime (1990) Collection of stories written to honour Agatha Christie’s birth centenary. Good readable stories, all set in the 1920s/30s. Some stories allude to Christie’s characters, others merely share the setting with her stories. Worth keeping, but only as part of an Agatha Christie collection. ** to *** (2003)
