In 1950s London, a literary agent finds fame when he secretly steals a young woman's brilliant novel manuscript and publishes it under his own name, Lewis Carson. Two days after their meeting, the woman is found strangled on Peckham Rye Common: did Lewis purloin the manuscript as an act of callous opportunism, or as the spoils of a calculated murder?

But the other writers at the retreat embark on an evening of squabbling about the death and its motive.. Series: CONTRABAND POCKET CRIME COLLEC. Num Pages: 96 pages. BIC Classification: FA. .
