Fiction

A collection of novels, republished for a modern audience to enjoy. The British Library has scoured its extensive collection for the best of crime novels, some well-loved and some forgotten classics from the golden age of British crime writing. Neglected and left languishing, many of these titles have not been seen in print since before the Second World War. With covers as iconic and collectible as the works themselves.
