Francis Beeding was the non-de-plume of John Leslie Palmer and Hilary Saunders (one time librarian of the House of Commons) who wrote several spy thrillers together between the 1920s and 1940s, notably creating the recurring character Colonel Alistair Granby. This is one of their rarer forays into the emerging genre of crime fiction but still has the flavour of a thriller. 12mo
