Buy the book from:
Now married, Tommy and Tuppence are asked by the intelligence service to operate a detective agency while watching for messages connected with foreign espionage. They handle a succession of thefts, disappearances, blackmail attempts and murders, adopting the methods and mannerisms of popular fictional detectives.
The collection is both a set of mysteries and a playful survey of 1920s crime writing. Beneath the parody, the cases reflect the decade’s clubs, newspapers, new consumer goods and fears of international intrigue, while the Beresfords’ partnership shows domestic life and adventure reinforcing rather than excluding one another.
