Books Update: Queens Of Crime: Margery Allingham
*Crime, Spies & Sleaze: All the Queens Of Crime had their recurring detectives of course, and Margery Allingham’s was Albert Campion, a suave sleuth of noble blood, perfectly portrayed on TV by Peter Davison. Four Allingham Penguins in classic green and white stripe livery from the 1950s/60s fresh in this week, three featuring Campion in typically clever murder mysteries, and the fourth a double bill of suspense stories. Although perfectly readable, these copies are not in the best condition; full details, including condition notes, await you in our catalogue.
