Cut Throat, Christopher Bush's new murder story, is one of the most ingenious that he has written. It begins with the arrival at a Press King's house of a hamper containing a corpse. Travers, well known to readers of Mr. Bush's other books, was on the spot and followed the trail of the murderer from the Albert) Hall to a private house in the country, through many queer incidents. The solution, when it is finally reached, is startling. The swing of a pendulum goes some way towards unmasking a clever criminal—to say more would be to give away a fascinating puzzle. |
