This set includes: Black as He's Painted, 1974. Detective Roderick Alleyn went to school with the President of the newly independent fictional African nation of Ng'ombwana, so who else would they call when a series of murder occur connected to the embassy in London? Last Ditch, 1977. Featuring Alleyn's son, Ricky, in a central role tackling drug smuggling in the Channel Islands. Grave Mistake, 1978. Set in a fictional village near Kent, England, a supposed suicide of a wealthy widow in a chic rest spa involves a rare and famous postage stamp. Photo-Finish, 1980. Alleyn and his wife are invited to the luxury home of millionaire Montague V. Reece and his mistress, international opera star, Isabella Sommita. Alleyn's commission is to investigate and stop the activities of a masked paparazzo who has been persecuting Sommita with unauthorised and unflattering photographs. Light Thickens, 1982. Detective Roderick Alleyn is back for the final time, here to investigate the murder of the lead actor in a production of Macbeth. In the original full cloth binding.
