The Clue Of The Twisted Candle - 9781984063915

This novel really does have it all for lovers of vintage mystery - a truly evil villain of extreme wealth, a locked room murder, a thoroughly decent, sensible young Scotland Yard investigator, a Dartmoor prison break, and a feisty brave young woman. John Lexman is a successful writer of detective fiction, newly married to the beautiful Grace, they live in a small cottage out in the country. Unknown to Grace John's slight money worries have led him to borrow money from a money lender, a man introduced to Lexman by new friend Remington Kara, an enormously wealthy Greek Albanian. Grace Lexman has reason to fear Kara, she knows he is an evil man, and is concerned about the influence he is having on her husband. She is right to be fearful; Lexman is soon locked up in Dartmoor for the murder of the money lender. Grace knows Kara is behind the peculiar events of that strange evening. This however is just the beginning of the story.
