The Crimson RamblerA Crime Novel

Format: Paperback

Condition: Standard Secondhand — £7.30
What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

  • New - a brand new book
  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

When Warner Darnworth is shot through the back of his head in his study while seated at his desk, Chief Inspector Gossage is called in to investigate. But the study door is securely locked on the inside with the only key, the closed window is tamper-proof, no weapon can be found, the movement of everyone in the house has been accounted for, and there are no traces of footprints in the garden outside. In other words, it's an impossible crime. Gossage finds plenty of family skeletons and motives that might have caused Darnworth's murder. But who actually killed the man--and more to the point, how? A classic locked-room mystery.
