Death and the Dancing Footman (Roderick Alleyn Series #11)

by Ngaio Marsh

Overview

This tale of murder at a snowed-in country house is a “constant puzzle to the end . . . alive with wit” (The New York Times).

The unspeakably wealthy (and generally unspeakable) Jonathan Royal has decided to throw a party and, just for fun, has studded the guest list with people who loathe one another. When a blizzard imprisons them all in Royal’s country house, murder ensues, and there are nearly as many suspects as there are potential victims. Eventually, Inspector Alleyn makes his way through the snow to put things right, in this classic whodunit by the Mystery Writers of America Grand Master.

“A smooth yarn.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

Editorial Reviews

It's time to start comparing Christie to Marsh instead of the other way around.
