Debt to Freeman Wills Crofts
6 November 2019 - 3 out of 5 users found this review helpful.
Vernon must have been a fan of Freeman Wills Crofts. The detective here could easily have been Inspector French - a portly pipe-smoker determinedly dismantling an alibi involving a devilish bit of engineering on a means of transport. He gets stuck but finally makes the breakthrough. He needs to travel to France, three times I think. He responds with stoicism to the doubts of his superior. A little more affability would have made the match perfect. There is surely a debt here to Crofts.
