When a weekend house party erupts into tragedy, the sudden and inexplicable death of a young man leaves guests reeling - and the authorities baffled. Enter Mrs. Beatrice Adela Lestrange Bradley, a brilliant and unconventional psychoanalyst whose sharp intellect and keen understanding of human behavior make her uniquely suited to unravel the case.
As secrets surface and alibis crumble, Mrs. Bradley probes beneath polite society's surface to expose hidden motives and dangerous obsessions. Nothing about the death is as straightforward as it first appears, and each clue leads deeper into a web of deception. First published in 1929, SPEEDY DEATH launched one of the most distinctive detective series of the Golden Age. Combining traditional whodunit structure with psychological insight and an eccentric but formidable heroine.
This Impact Books edition brings a landmark British mystery back to life for modern readers who love classic crime fiction.
