The British Library
Get sleuthing this season with a republished gem from the height of British crime-writing. The Christmas Egg: a missing jewelled Easter egg and the body of a Russian emigré challenges Chief Inspector Brett Nightingale and Sergeant Beddoes with a cast of suspects. Was it the downtrodden grandson, a plutocratic jeweller, or Bolsheviks with unfinished business? As Christmas approaches, a thrilling chase ensues across London to track down the culprit and the treasure in a tightly-paced, twisting, mystery thriller. An unconventional crime tale from 1958 by Mary Theresa Coolican (1927-2017), published under her pen name Mary Kelly.
