Pictorial Wrappers. Zustand: As New. No Jacket. 1st Prtg. 1st printing. A fine, unread copy of this trade paperback. A six page introduction by Tom and Enid Schantz. When a man is found suffocated to death in an escape tunnel under impossible conditions, British POWS turn detective. Based in part on Gilbert's own experiences as a prisoner-of-war during World War II, The Danger Within (Death in Captivity in Britain) is often considered one of the author's best books. British prisoners in Campo 127 . are concerned when they learn that the Allies are about to invade Italy since this means that it's only a matter of time before the Germans seize control of their camp and so escape plans are escalated. But it appears that there may be a spy in the camp and when a man turns up dead under extremely odd circumstances in an escape tunnel, the prisoners have even more to be concerned about. It was filmed in 1959 with Richard Attenborough, Michael Wilding and Richard Todd. "A superb, though harrowing, story of murder in a prisoner-of-war camp . the skill with which suspense is kept up during a series of trivial incidents related to oppression and plans of escape is equaled only by the management of a large number of characters, Italian and English. "-Jacques Barzun and Wendell Hertig Taylor, A Catalogue of Crime. Gilbert is one of the most highly honored mystery writers of the second half of the twentieth century -- A MWA Grandmaster, a CWA Diamond Dagger Winner and a Bouchercon Lifetime Achievement honoree. 160 pages.

Pictorial Wrappers. Zustand: As New. 1st Prtg. 1st prtg. A fine, unread copy of this trade paperback. Originally published in 1948, it's the first in a delightful series of comedic mysteries featuring this most engaging detecting duo. For years people have been telling Jane Hamish that her work as a clerk in a law firm must be so interesting that she should write a book about it. So she decides to write a thriller, with help, of course, from her boyfriend Dagobert Brown, who is fortunately unemployed and so has ample time to investigate when one ofthe firm's clients, old Mrs. Robjohn, dies from gas inhalation in her lonely room. Meanwhile, Jane keeps tabs on her coworkers and eventually becomes convinced that the old lady, who was certain she was being stalked, was actually murdered. Among the clues Jane and Dagobert pore over are a gold cigarette lighter that keeps turning up in odd places and a William the Fourth shilling that was retrieved from Mrs. Robjohn' s gas meter. And when he's not posing as a gas company employee or a door-to-door salesman, Dagobert continues to romance Jane after hours. Book.…

Pictorial Wrappers. Zustand: Fine. No Jacket. 1st Prtg. 1st prtg. A fine, unread copy of this trade paperback. A class trip to a Manhattan aquarium leads Miss Withers to her first case. Although the stock market had crashed recently, it was too early for most people to predict that the Great Depression was about to get under way. For 39-year-old spinster schoolteacher Hildegarde Withers, it's business as usual. And part of her usual business is taking her class for an outing to the aquarium to see the penguins. Instead, she spots the floating corpse of Wall Street broker Gerald Lester and quickly realizes that Inspector Oscar Piper ofNYPD Homicide isn't up to solving this tricky case, especially when he appears ready to accept the confession of an obviously innocent young man. Red herrings as well as penguins abound. Miss Withers has a number of questions that need answers before she can reel in the real murderer: Who did Lester's wife meet behind the stairs? What did the pickpocket see? Who was man in the fedora? And just how did Miss Wither's hatpin turn into a lethal weapon? First published in 1931, The Penguin Pool Murder was as big a hit with readers as it was with moviegoers when it was filmed the following year starring Edna May Oliver as Miss Withers and James Gleason as Inspector Piper.

The Earl of Ornum has been forced to open his 300-room ancestral estate to the public, who gladly pay to view the imposing halls and galleries with their fine collections of china, art and antique weaponry. On one memorable Sunday afternoon, the sights include a very recent corpse stuffed into a suit of armor, and soon Detective Inspector Sloan of the Calleshire CID is navigating the treacherous waters of the aristocracy, a copy of Burke's Peerage in one hand and his earnest young assistant, Constable Crosby, in tow. "There's something very old-fashioned about this-butlers and bodies in the library," complains the unhappy Superintendent Leeyes to Sloan. There is also a helpful vicar, a lovelorn steward, a black-sheep nephew, and two very old and eccentric aunts--everything, in fact, you could want in a stately home murder, with the possible exception of a secret passageway. First published in England in 1969 as "The Complete Steel", it's one ofthe finest and funniest books by this mistress ofthe gentle art of mayhem. Book.…
