by Francis Beeding (Author), Karl Wurf (Introduction by)

A summer seaside resort is unsettled by a string of brutal, inexplicable killings that send visitors fleeing and local life into panic. Sergeant Ruddock follows the clues in a skilful and absorbing manner until he finally gets his man and brings him to account. But when there's a further murder...does he have the wrong man?

John Leslie Palmer and Hilary Aidan St. George Saunders (writing as Francis Beeding), in a cleverly disguised plot, have the reader guessing all the way. A classic of Golden Age mystery fiction.
