Mystery crime fiction written in the Golden Age of Murder'The'stranger in a strange land'premise works really well in this revived mystery...Bude infuses the tale with comic commentary throughout.'—Booklist'Small hostilities were growing; vague jealousies were gaining strength; and far off, wasn't there a nebulous hint of approaching tragedy in the air?'Welworth Garden City in the 1940s is a forward-thinking town where free spirits find a home—vegetarians, socialists, and an array of exotic religious groups. Chief among these are the Children of Osiris, led by the eccentric High Prophet, Eustace K. Mildmann. The cult is a seething hotbed of petty resentment, jealousy and dark secrets—which eventually lead to murder. The stage is set for one of Inspector Meredith's most bizarre and exacting cases.This witty crime novel by a writer on top form is a neglected classic of British crime fiction.
