A classic mystery from the Golden Age of detective fiction.

It was rumoured that Hollywood stars would go to any lengths for the privilege of being photographed by the good-looking, brilliantly talented and ultra-fashionable portrait photographer Leslie Searle. But what was this gifted creature doing in such an English village backwater as Salcott St Mary? And why - and how - did he disappear? If a crime had been committed, was it murder ... fraud ... or simply some macabre practical joke?

Josephine Tey died in 1952, leaving her entire estate to the National Trust.
