I'm pretty sure I've read something by Margery Allingham, back in the day. What is "The Works," by the way? Last edited by qimissung; at Curiosity has its' own reason for existing. Oh, definitely a good bit of fun and ideal for summer reading as you say. Oh The Works is a discount shop selling books and kids stuff, paints and games and that sort of stuff.

Blueprint for Murder (Inspector James Mystery)

Many of the books in there are often no good at all but you sometimes come across some good things - I expect it's just a UK discount store. They are available on Amazon as well and other places as well I would guess. Ooh, thanks for bringing this to our attention Neely. Before the Fact is one of my all-time favourite books, and I have been after a copy for years, with no luck. I read our battered old Library copy years ago, and have been telling everyone who would listen what a brilliant book it is.

I have it on my wishlist at Waterstones, but knew it was one of those difficult to get hold of books, and was hoping that it would get re-printed soon, as it is always on the top crime books lists that appear every so often. I may just have to investigate the Works online, as it's difficult for me to get to a shop, and there's no guarantee they would have it in if I managed to get to one in my holidays.

I've just checked Waterstones and Amazon and they seem to have it advertised now, but it's not published until the end of August, although there are copies in stock I also tried the Works and I was denied access to my request for some reason. How have you got a copy already Neely?

Last edited by wessexgirl; at I overlooked these the last time I was in The Works - thanks for drawing attention to them, Neely. I used to go round to my aunt's house to watch each episode as we didn't have a tv - she had bought one for the Coronation. Yes, I'm that old My uncle insisted on calling every serial 'East Lynne' - that must have been the first Sunday Tea Time Classic serial we watched though I can't say I remember that one, except for 'Dead! And never called me Mother!

I've just finished that book today, oh what an annoying woman she is - good stuff though!!! The book is available on Amazon is it not and they are piled up in The Works in Sheffield? If you can't get it though just let me know and I'll pick you one up and happily send it you, no charge, no worries. Just pm me, no probs.

I'm getting Mrs Neely to read it after Blueprint for Murder which was really top stuff - they don't write 'em like that anymore.
