Impact of Evidence

The British Library
An evocative, British mystery from the golden age of crime writing. A tragic accident at a dangerous cross roads on roads awash with thawing snow has brought death to St Brynneys. Old Doctor Robinson, the hapless victim of the accident, was known as a ‘menace on the roads’ but, what is really perplexing the locals is why is there a second body in the back of the car? No-one recognises the second victim and the local police are stumped. Called into this remote farming community in the Welsh borders, Chief Inspector Rivers and Inspector Lancing of Scotland Yard find themselves caught in a murky web of deceit and danger. A tightly-written mystery which will keep you guessing. First published in 1954, a republished tale by Carol Carnac, a pen-name of the revered and prolific Edith Caroline Rivett (1894-1958).
