The Perfect Alibi
"GOOD GOD, YOU DON'T THINK IT WAS AN ACCIDENT?"

Wealthy industrialist Anthony Mullins is found dead in a garage fire with the door locked. The locals assume it was an accident or perhaps suicide. But when the autopsy reveals a bullet wound to Mullins' head and no revolver is found, a murder investigation ensues. Was the killer disgraced nephew Holliday, rumoured to be overly close to his wife? Or Patricia Mullins herself, whose inheritance relied on her husband's death from natural causes? Or friend James Constant, who's research society is the beneficiary of Mullins' unusual will? It soon becomes apparent that everyone, including the victim, has something to hide. Police Constable Lawrence Sadler and journalist Charles Venables must work to unravel the truth before the murderer acts again.

CHRISTOPHER ST JOHN SPRIGG (1907 - 1937)

Christopher St John Sprigg was a witty and prolific writer who also publishing non-fiction under the pseudonym Christopher Cauldwell. The Perfect Alibi was the third of seven crime novels Sprigg wrote between 1933 and his death in February 1937 during the Spanish Civil War. Other books featuring sleuth Charles Venables – Crime in Kensington, Fatality in Fleet Street, and Death of a Queen – are also available from Moonstone Press.
